Activate Your Account
Before using your webspace, you must first activate your account. If you are a Pace University student, staff, or faculty member, please visit the Webspace Activation Page to request personal webspace.
If you are requesting webspace for a club/organization, you must instead submit a request through the DoIT Helpdesk.
Accessing Your Webspace
The URL to access your webpages is: http://webpage.pace.edu/account
If you requested personal webspace, then account is your MyPace username. Otherwise, if you are trying to access a club/organization webspace, account is the name you requested when it was set up.
It is strongly recommended that your webspace contain a file named index.html. This is the default document that will be displayed when visiting http://webpage.pace.edu/account. If there is no index.html file present, the contents of your webspace directory will be listed.
Managing Your Account
To manage your webspace, you must connect using FTP. The following is the information you will need when using an FTP client:
- Server: webpage.pace.edu
- Username: pace\account (You must include "pace\" before your username for personal webpages. For a club/organization, you exclude the "pace\".)
- Password: your MyPace password
If you are using Microsoft Windows, you can use Windows Explorer to connect to your webspace. Open Windows Explorer, and type ftp://webpage.pace.edu in the address bar. You are prompted for your username and password (see above).
Otherwise, there are several other free options available:
- FireFTP - a plug-in for Mozilla Firefox
- CoreFTP - an FTP client for Microsoft Windows
- Classic FTP - an FTP client for Mac OS X
- FileZilla FTP Client - an FTP Client for Windows, Linux, or Mac OS X
