Cobalt RaQ XTR User Manual 81
Common gateway interface (CGI) allows users to have Web sites run programs
that dynamically generate HTML pages in response to specific user inputs. CGI
scripts can be created on a user’s desktop computer and then transferred to the
RaQ XTR with a file transfer protocol (FTP) application (as explained in
Chapter 6, “Services”). CGI scripts must have a .pl or .cgi filename extension.
If “Email server aliases” are entered, site users can retrieve email at the aliases
specified. For example, if the name of the site is raqxtr.abc.com and the domain
names abc.com and mail.abc.com are entered, users can receive mail addressed
to <username>@raqxtr.abc.com, <username>@abc.com, and
<username>@mail.abc.com.
Suspend a virtual site
There are two ways to suspend a virtual site on the RaQ XTR: a hard suspension
and a soft suspension.
Soft suspension
The RaQ XTR Administrator can suspend an individual virtual site. All of the
site users are denied access to telnet, FTP and POP3/IMAP/APOP services, as
well as Web access to their files. The site user accounts do not receive email;
messages bounce back to the original sender.
To suspend an individual virtual site:
1. Select Site Management > Site Settings > General. The “Site Settings”
table appears.
2. At the bottom of the table, click to enable (check mark) the check box
Suspend Site.
3. Click Save Changes. The RaQ XTR saves the new configuration.
4. If you want to see that the site is suspended, click Server Management on
the left. The “Virtual Site List” table appears.
The name and the IP address for the suspended site are grayed-out. You can
still modify or delete a suspended site.
