Free Domain Aliases!Domain aliases allow you to point multiple domain names to the
same web hosting package. For e.g. suppose yourdomain.com was the primary domain
name for the hosting package and you also wanted to point yourdomain.net (additional
TLDs) or yourdomains.com ( mis-spellings) or someothername.com (additional
brandnames) to the same hosting package - then you would specify these additional
domain names as domain aliases. The important point to note is that the way a domain
alias functions - the visitor is not redirected to the primary domain name - the
domain name that he or she typed in the browser continues to be displayed as-is
through out the visit.

You can add up to 5 Domain Aliases with each hosting package that you purchase.
Kindly note that DNS Services are included for the primary domain name only and not
for domain aliases.

Domain Access with and without \"www\"Our web servers are configured to allow domain
access with and without the \"www.\" in front of the domain name i.e.
http://www.yourdomain.com and http://yourdomain.com will both work perfectly.

FTP FeaturesFile Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a software standard for transferring
computer files between machines with widely different operating systems. With our
hosting packages, you can use any FTP based client to upload data / content to the
web space included in your hosting package.

Unlike some hosting companies which restrict the amount of data that you can upload
and download on a daily basis, with ALL our hosting packages - you get the ability
to upload and download data 24x7, unlimited number of times. Add to this, you get
the ability to add up to 100 FTP users. Using the FTP Manager in the hosting control
panel you can do all of the following:

Add / Delete FTP Users
Restrict Access of a FTP User to a particular folder
Set Disk Quota Limitations on a per FTP User Basis
Change Passwords
Suspend / unsuspend access of FTP Users
You are also given access to the Complete Log of Actions performed by each user i.e.
you can find out which FTP user connected from what IP Address, at what time, and
uploaded / modified / deleted which all files.

Private Folder for Storing Sensitive DataA private folder is included with every
hosting package which allows you to store data and files securely and quickly via
FTP. This folder is outside your web directory i.e. not directly exposed on the
internet via HTTP and has special security permissions such that no user, other than
the FTP Users specified by you, has read or write access to the data in this folder.
By creating sub-folders within this private folder and restricting Access of FTP
Users to particular sub-folders, you can share files securely and reduce or
eliminate the need to copy data on disks for overnight delivery, thus saving both
time and money. Our FTP servers allow you to resume partial transfers where they
left off, so even if you get disconnected or end a session, you can always reconnect
and resume the transfer where you left off at a later date or time.

Web Traffic ReportingA powerful web traffic reporting tool is included within your
control panel. This tool generates web based reports that provide insightful
information about the users visiting your website, such as, the number of unique
visitors, no of hits, avg duration spent by each user on your website, most viewed
entry and exit pages, search engines, keyphrases and keywords used to find your site
etc.

Using the Web Statistics Manager in the control panel, you have the:

ability to password protect your web based traffic reports to ensure that only
authorised people have access to this data
option to automatically delete web log files after generating the web based traffic
reports to save disk space
ability to disable the generation of the web traffic reports
ability to customize your web traffic reports by setting the following parameters
Skip Hosts - Specify hosts / IP addresses from which all data (hits/page views etc),
should not be taken into consideration while generating statistics
Skip Files - Specify filenames / directories which should be ignored while
generating statistics
Only Files - This is the opposite of the \'Skip Files\' option. The option is used to
include in stats, only accesses to URLs that match the specified filenames /
directories
Not Page List - List of file extensions which must be counted as \'Hit only\' and not
as a \'Page View\'
Password Protect your DirectoriesDirectory Protection is an easy-to-use web based
tool included in the control panel that allows you create as many password protected
areas as you want without requiring any programming. This allows you to store
sensitive material online and give browser based access to such content / data to
authorized users only. A password dialogue box will automatically popup in the
browser when an attempt is made to access the password protected directory or any of
its sub-directories.

Your Own Backup Policy ManagerThe Backup Manager provides comprehensive and cost
effective protection by allowing you to define highly flexible backup policies that
will protect their critical data. The web-based backup policy manager provides an
easy-to-use one-step wizard to add each policy.

You just needs to follow the steps mentioned below:

select the directory for which the policy is being created
this could be the entire website directory, a sub-folder or the database directory -
depending on what critical data you wants to backup
specify the frequency of the backup
daily / weekly / monthly
specify the number of backup files to keep
backup archives are rotated \'no of backlogs\' times before being deleted
You are allowed to add as many policies as you want. This allows you to creatively
structure any kind of backup policy that you require.

For e.g. you can add one policy which takes a backup of the entire website on a
daily basis, with 5 backlogs. Another policy, which takes a backup of the entire
website on a weekly basis, with 4 backlogs, and yet another policy which takes a
backup of the entire website on a monthly basis, with 6 backlogs.

With the above set of policies, you have created a comprehensive backup plan with
multiple restore points for his website. You can roll back to a point in the last 5
days, or restore a backup which was taken every week for the last whole month, or a
backup that was taken monthly upto 6 months ago.

Raw Log FilesComprehensive Raw Log files are made available in each web hosting
packages Logs Folder.

The raw log files consist of:

Web Log Files
These files are generated by the web server to record all requests made to the
website. They are primarily used by website statistics software to generate reports
on essential marketing metrics for your website such as the no of visitors, pages
viewed, visit duration, referring websites, search engines, keyphrases and keywords
used to find your site, visitor\'s computer configurations etc
FTP Log Files
These files are generated by the FTP server to record all logins, uploads and
downloads made to and from your hosting package
Mail Log Files
These files are generated by the mail server to record all emails sent using code on
your website
The Log Files Manager in the control panel provides extremely flexible options to
manage these raw log files. All options can be configured seperately for Web, FTP
and Mail Log files. The user can choose to disable a particular type of logging in
order to save disk space. If the user chooses to enable logging, the system allows
the user to specify log rotation options to delete older log entries automatically
so that the log files do not continue growing in size indefinetely. The user can
specify the no of backlogs to maintain for each type of log file, set a max log file
size and set log rotation frequency (daily/weekly/monthly).

Customizable Error PagesWhen a visitor attempts to connect to a web site and an HTTP
error occurs, a generic message is sent back to the visitor\'s browser with a brief
description of what happened during the attempt to establish a connection. For
example, if a visitor attempts to connect to a page that no longer exists on the web
site , an HTTP error will be returned in the form of an HTML page that contains the
statement \"The requested URL was not found on this server\".

You can use the \"Custom Errors Pages\" section of the Control Panel to customize HTTP
errors that are sent to clients when web server errors occur.

You can customize the following HTTP errors:

401 - Authorization Failed
403 - Permission Denied
404 - File / Resource Not Found
406 - Resource Not Acceptable
500 - Internal Error
The customization options allow you to redirect the user to a local URL / remote URL
or specify a text / HTML message on the occurance of the specified HTTP error.

SSL Secure Server ManagerSecure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology protects data by
creating a secure connection between a client and a server using encryption enabled
by a server\'s SSL Certificate. SSL is required if your website is an ecommerce
website (or) has any secure login areas (or) requires any secure pages. The SSL
Manager in the control panel allows you to manage your CSR\'s (certificate signing
requests), public and private keys, SSL certificates provided by your CA and
self-signed certificates generated by the server.



Windows Only Hosting Features


100 ODBC DSN ConnectionsDatabase Source Names (DSN), are data structures used to
describe a connection to a database. Using the control panel, you can add up to 100
DSNs for connecting to Microsoft Access, Excel, SQL Server or MySQL.

Unlimited Microsoft Access DatabasesYou can deploy unlimited number of Microsoft
Access Databases within any windows hosting package. We have created a Private
Database Folder within your web space where you should upload/create all Microsoft
Access Databases. This folder has been placed outside your primary web folder for
security reasons, so that visitors to your website do not get direct access to your
databases.

Please note that for performance and reliability reasons, we strongly recommend the
use of Microsoft SQL Server for the deployment of production-quality web
sites/applications. Microsoft itself has stated the following - \"Microsoft Access
was designed as a single-user desktop database, and not for server use. When
multiple, concurrent users make requests of a Microsoft Access database,
unpredictable results may occur.\"

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Database ServicesIf the hosting package that you have
purchased includes MSSQL Database(s) then you get 5 Database Users per Database that
you have purchased. Using the Database Manager section in your control panel, you
can add / delete MSSQL Databases, add multiple database users for a single database,
change passwords etc.

Each database user can use Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer to connect to and
manage the MSSQL databases.

Website Speed BoosterThe Website Speed Booster, as of this writing, is a feature
unique to our hosting control panels ONLY. It automatically enhances the speed of
your website by upto 20x times and more. This tool works by compressing the content
delivered to the client when it is sent across the network. It uses the browsers
ability to uncompress this data seamlessly. The tool does not require any changes in
website code nor does it require any additional software on the client. All browsers
starting from Internet Explorer 4.0, Netscape 4.06, Opera 5, Lynx 2.6 support this
feature. Our solution will simply not compress the data if the visitor has a
non-compliant browser.

Using the control panel you can boost the speed of all of the following:

all static pages i.e. html, js, css files etc
all dynamic pages i.e. php, perl, cgi, python files etc
all images and downloadables i.e. gif, jpg, png, doc, pdf, xls files etc
Auto Correct URL SpellingThis option is another feature unique to our hosting
control panels ONLY - it attempts to automatically correct misspellings of URLs that
users might have entered, by ignoring capitalization and by allowing up to one
misspelling (character insertion / omission / transposition or wrong character).
Requests to documents sometimes cannot be served by the web server because the
request was misspelled or miscapitalized. This option addresses the problem by
trying to find a matching document. It does its work by comparing each document name
in the requested directory against the requested document name without regard to
case, and allowing misspellings. A list is built with all document names which were
matched using this strategy.

If, after scanning the directory,

no matching document was found, then the server will proceed as usual and return a
\"document not found\" error
only one document is found that \"almost\" matches the request, then it is returned in
the form of a redirection response
more than one document with a close match was found, then the list of the matches is
returned to the client, and the client can select the correct candidate
For example, if the visitor to your website types in
http://www.yourdomainname.com/home.htm or http://www.yourdomainname.com/Home.html in
the browser\'s address bar, and the actual page which exists on the web server is
home.html then the visitor will automatically be redirected to
http://www.yourdomainname.com/home.html if the Auto Correct URL Spelling option is
enabled.

Unlimited Web Forwarding RulesThe Redirect Manager in the hosting control panel
gives you the ability to forward requests for any local folder, sub-folder, file to
another domain name, URL, or IP address seamlessly. For e.g. if you want
http://www.yourdomainname.com/corp to redirect to http://www.someotherdomain.com,
then you can add a rule for the same. The easy-to-use Redirect Manager allows you to
add as many such web forwarding rules as you want.

Direct Download ManagerAnother feature exclusive to our control panels - the Direct
Download Manager helps you save several hours of your valuable time by allowing you
to download files to your web space directly from another server via a HTTP URL or
FTP URL. If you need to transfer large files to your web space that are already
available on some other server, then you would typically have to download these
files locally to your desktop and re-upload them. All of this could take up quite
some time depending on the file size and your internet connection speed. However,
using the server-to-server transfer facility provided by the Direct Download Manager
you can utilize the server\'s high speed connection to directly download large files,
so, even if you are connected to the Internet via a dial-up connection, file
transfers will occur at the very high speeds.

This feature is most useful when you are transferring your website date from your
previous web hosting provider, as you could just zip up your whole website and
instead of downloading it locally to your desktop, directly download it on the
server and unzip it there.
