Accessing Your New ThetaJoin Server
There are serveral ways to access your ThetaJoin server. The security of your ThetaJoin server is very important to us, which demands that all remote access to you server is via Secure Sockets Layer SSL. When you sign up for ThetaJoin Hosting, we'll provide you with several URLs with username, and password to access your server.
SSL Username & Password
The first time you connect to your new ThetaJoin server using a URL similar to https://www.example.com, you'll be prompted for a username and password before you can gain access to Webmin, phpMyAdmin, AWStats, or any Drupal administrative pages (only if the Drupal Secure Pages module has been installed, which we HIGHLY recommend). Webmin, phpMyAdmin, and Drupal administrative pages require an additional username & password to login. AWStats doesn't require a seperate username & password. You can have your web browser remember this username & password, plus you can change both. ThetaJoin will provide instructions on how to change your SSL password.
Webmin
Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration of your ThetaJoin server, very similar to CPanelTM but requires far less resources. If you've used any of the control panel style interfaces, you'll feel right at home. We've gone even further in configuring Webmin, it's only configured to display what you're allowed to do on your server, nothing more. Detailed instructions can be found on the ThetaJoin Hosting Webmin page. The standard URL for Webmin access is: https://www.example.com:10000, where www.example.com would be replaced with your real website server hostname.
phpMyAdmin
phpMyAdmin is a free software tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL using your web browser. phpMyAdmin is used to create the Drupal database, manage webserver virtual hosts, and Drupal's user account to access MySQL. Detailed instructions can be found on the ThetaJoin Hosting phpMyAdmin page. The URL to access phpMyAdmin will be similar to: https://www.example.com/phpmyadmin , where www.example.com will be replaced with your real website server hostname.
AWStats
AWStats is a free powerful and featureful tool that generates advanced web statistics graphically. All ThetaJoin servers use AWStats to analyze the webserver's logfile. The URL to access AWStats will be similar to https://www.example.com/awstats/cgi-bin/awstats.pl, where www.example.com will be replaced with your real website server hostname.
Command Line Access
We are working to provide command line access to ThetaJoin servers using:
- SSH
- SFTP
- SCP
We'll announce when we've reached that milestone.
