Once you have an account in ARCiB.dowling.edu, and can connect to it, you will want to create web pages. Unlike the process of setting up a Google sites web page Mary Fran's Getting Started with Google Sites, instead of using a graphical user interface (GUI), all the setup for an ARCiB web site is done by typing commands in a terminal window.
The things you need to do are:
When you first log in to your account, you are in your home directory. Each user has a different home directory. Inside that home directory you have files as sub-directories. In order to support web pages you need to have a public_html sub-directory of your home directory. You can create it by
mkdir public_html
Once you have created a public_html sub-directory of your home directory, you need to create a cgi-bin subdirectoty of the public_html directory. If you just created public_html then you can do
mkdir public_html/cgi-bin
or, if you have been doing other work and are not certain whether you are in your home directory or somewhere else, then, first return to your home directory by
cd
and then drop down to public_html by
cd public_html
and then create the cgi-bin subdirectory by
mkdir cgi-bin
If you have already created public_html/cgi-bin, you can reliably go to public_html/cgi-bin by first returning to your home directory and then dropping down to public_html/cgi-bin
cd
cd public_html/cgi-bin
In order to create or change a web page, you need an editor. One of the simplest to use is called pico on arcib. On other machines, a similar editor is call nano. See

The actual content you will edit into a web page is written in the HyperText Markup Language (HTML). See W3Schools HTML Tutorial and Introduction to the Internet.
