Q: How do I restrict access to my pages? A: Follow these instructions

Q: I can't write to my public_html directory? 'A: Most likely reason is, that you have reached your diskquota limit. Login to e.g. thinlinc.imm.dtu.dk using your UNIX username/password and type

immquota

Twice per day all users diskquota are checked and an email send to users who exceed their quota. Questions regarding quotas should be send to itsupport@imm.dtu.dk.

'Q: How do I check my quotas?
'
A: To see your current quota limit and usage you must log on to a UNIX server (e.g. thinlinc.compute.dtu.dk) and in a terminal window type the command:

immquota

If you have exceeded your quota, you will receive an email (this check is performed twice a day).

If you are connecting to the WWW2 server using samba (and mapping the share to a local drive) the used/available space on that drive reflects your usage and quota.

Q: Problems with redirects from http://www.compute.dtu.dk/~xxxx/ABC to http://www2.compute.dtu.dk/~xxxx/ABC
A: If the folder/file on www2.compute.dtu.dk contains a capitalized letter the redirect will not work. This is because the redirect on sitecore is being lowercased. Either avoid using capitalized letters or place the following line:

 CheckSpelling On

in the folder, which holds the folder ABC (in this case: /www/home/xxxx/public_html/.htaccess). A side effect is that everything becomes case insensitive under http://www2.compute.dtu.dk/~xxxx.
