Changes to College Web Servers (And What That Means to Us)

OIT split the GPC web server into three distinct servers (www.gpc.edu, facstaff.gpc.edu, and student.gpc.edu) on Sunday, March 30th. This will have no affect on the library webpages, but, if you maintain an individual page, your URL will have changed to facstaff.gpc.edu/~yourname. For example, my webpage used to be:

http://www.gpc.edu/~tminchew

And now it is:

http://facstaff.gpc.edu/~tminchew

You'll need to make the necessary corrections to your links and images within your websites to point to the correct server.

Also you'll need to change the FTP host in Frontpage, Dreamweaver, CoreFTP, etc. from www.gpc.edu to facstaff.gpc.edu.

OIT will be doing automatic redirections until April 29th. Redirections will be discontinued on April 30th. Therefore, any web sites not corrected prior to April 30th may contain broken images and links.

OIT has also prepared a handy document to help us with the transition.

Repeat: This does not affect the URLs of the library webpages, but it may affect links within those pages, so please report anything you see to that page's webmaster.

Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions.
