Incoming POP3 Server: mail01.one2onecomputers.com
Outgoing SMTP Server: mail01.one2onecomputers.com (or use your ISP's outgoing server)
Username: your full e-mail address

Q. Why did One2One change its e-mail services? |
|
|
|
In February of 2008, One2One completed an upgrade of all our web hosting servers and software to be able to provide more and better services to our clients. Because the two systems are so radically different, clients using the old system for webmail access can not have their mail automatically imported into the new servers.
Clients who normally download (aka POP) their mail, only need to change their mail settings to work with the new servers, but clients who exclusively used our old webmail system need to either configure an e-mail program like Outlook to download the mail off of that system, or forward the mail out of the old webmail to another location (even back to the same address which would send it to the new system) to make sure they do not lose the mail when the old servers are eventually turned off.
Some other changes you might notice with the new system are:

5) If you need to create a new sub directory for the FTP account to be assigned to, you should do this now.
- You can create a new directory by FTPing into your root directory using your existing credentials (example: enter ftp://yourdomain.com for browsers or yourdomain.com for FTP applications, and use your existing ftp username and password to login) and then right click and create a new folder, naming it what you choose.
or
- In the Edit Domain window, click File Manager. Then click the wwwroot folder on the left window. Click New Folder at the top. A new folder called "new folder" will appear in both windows (left and right). click on the new folder name itself (New Folder) and it will highlight it and create an editable text box which will allow you to edit the name of the folder. When you are finished editing the name of the folder press Enter. Your new sub directory has been created. Click Back to return you to the Edit Domain Window.

- example 1: If you just want to assign the FTP user to the root directory so that they can access all of the files on your website, type \wwwroot
- example 2: If you want the FTP user to be assigned to a specific sub folder of the site, type in it's path like this: \wwwroot\foldername or wwwroot\folder1\folder2 depending on where the folder is.
- If you are not sure where the folder is on your web space, click the folder tree icon to the right of the Path field. A window will appear showing you the wwwroot of your website. Click the plus sign next to wwwroot and it will exapand the window to show you the subfolders benieth your root directory. Here you can either click the folder you wanted to assign the permissions to, or keep looking for your folder by clicking the plus signs next to the sub directories listed until you do find the folder you are looking for. When you do, click on the name of the folder and the path of it will automatically appear in the Path field. You can click the X in the top left of the window to make the folder tree dissapear.
12) You now need to assign access rights.

Q. How do I use the File Manager in Helm? |
|
|
|
1) Visit the HELM Control Panel at http://helm.one2onecomputers.com:8086/login.aspx or add /admin to the end of your One2One hosted domain name (exmaple: http://domain.com/admin ).
2) Login with your Domain Name, and the password you were given by our Web Support Staff. If you have not received your HELM password, contact us at webmaster@one2onecomputers.com
3) Click My Domains.
4) In the Domain List, click on the domain you wish to manage files for.
5) In the Edit Domain Window you will see the icon for the File Manager. Click it.
6) You are now in the HELM File Manager for your domain. At the top of the Domain Manager you will see several menu options including New File, New Folder, Edit, Delete, Copy, Move, Upload, Download, Zip, Unzip, and Refresh. We will go over what each of these menu items does in a moment.
Below the menu items you will see the screen is divided into two parts. The left part lists the Folder Tree for your Web Space. By Default this will display the Backup directory, the logs directory, and the wwwroot directory of your web space.
The Backup Directory stores any backups of your website that you make using the HELM website Backup Tool, though you could also make backups yourself using other means and store them here if you wish.
The logs Directory stores the IIS logs for your website in plain text. These are translated into statistical reports by our free website statistics tracker. We do NOT recommend you store files in this directory, nor tamper with the logs in any way or you could prevent the statistics tracker from being able to track your site.
The wwwroot Directory is the folder in which your live website is housed. All files and folders within this directory can be accessed via the internet.
The right part of the File Manager shows you what is in the directory you click on from the left side of the screen. If you click the wwwroot directory for example, it will show you all of the files you are currently storing in your wwwroot directory.
If you have not yet uploaded your website, you may see a file in your wwwroot directory called _holding.htm. This is a holding file that is automatically added to your web space by the server when your web space is created. You may delete this file when you upload your website files if you like.
Now let’s go over what each of the menu functions in the File Manager do. Note: You may want to make sure you have clicked on the wwwroot folder to move you into your active webspace before proceeding:
New File – if you click New File, the File Manager will create a blank file called "New File.html". You can modify this file by clicking on the file and choosing Edit from the File Manager menu.
New Folder – if you click on New Folder, the File Manager will create a blank folder called "New Folder". You can modify the name of the Folder by double clicking on it in the right side of the File Manager.
Edit – if you click on a file in the right side of the File Manager and click Edit, the File Manager will open the File Editor. This allows you to save the File to another location, change its name or file extension, Save the file as Plain Text, Rich Text, or a PDF, and it also displays and allows you to edit the contents of the file if applicable. Note: The Editor is meant to be used for files coded using web-based programming languages like HTML, not for graphics. When you are finished editing the file, click Save.
Delete – if you click on a file in the right side of the File Manager and click Delete, the File Manager will Delete the File. It will ask if you are sure you wish to delete the file before it completes the deletion in case you accidently click the button.
Copy – if you click on a file in the right side of the File Manager and click Copy, the File Manager will open the Copy Items window. It will list the files you have selected and allow you to choose a destination folder where they will be copied to. When you are ready to copy the files, click Save. You will now see the copies of these files listed in the destination folder. The file names will contain a (1) or (2), and so on, respectively if you copy and recopy the files.
Move – if you click on a file in the right side of the File Manager and click Move, the File Manager will open the Move FIles window. This is identical to the Copy Items feature except instead of creating copies of the files, it moves the original files to the destination folder.
Upload – if you click Upload, the File Manager will open the Upload File window. Here you can select a file from your computer by using the Browse button and upload it to the directory you are currently in by clicking Save. Note: You cannot upload a folder from your computer. If you try, it will simply open that folder thinking you want to upload one of the files inside. If you have multiple files you’d like to upload at the same time, try Zipping them on your computer first, and uploading that Zipped File. The File Manager has the capability of Unzipping some types of compressed files including Zip Files.
Download – if you click on a file in the right side of the File Manager and click Download, the File Manager will attempt to download it to your computer.
Zip – if you click on a file in the right side of the File Manager and click Zip, the File Manager will create a Zip File with that file inside and save it in the folder you are currently in. You can select multiple Files to be zipped by holding down the CTRL key when you click on the files. You can also zip whole directories by clicking on the folder in the right side of the File Manager and click Zip.
Unzip – if you click on a Zip file in the right side of the File Manager and click Unzip, the File Manager will open the Unzip File window. Here you can chose where you’d like the contents of the Zipped file to be saved. When you have determined where you wish to save the contents, or just wish to have the contents saved in the folder you are already in, click Save.
Refresh – click Refresh if you perform an action in the File Manager and do not see the result you were expecting. For example, if you delete a file, but it looks like it is still listed; the File Manager may just need to be refreshed.
