Fileboxes for Organizations - Service Change Notice

Important: Formally, fileboxes were available to Virginia Tech organizations, however, we have moved all organizational fileboxes either to the Virginia Tech Web Hosting server or to a personal filebox. This was necessary because the Filebox service was orginally designed for personal Web hosting and organizational fileboxes are better served with the Web Hosting Service (http://computing.vt.edu/webhosting). You were sent an e-mail detailing these changes with information about how to access your content in its new location. We are redirecting your filebox traffice to the new destination, whether the Web Hosting server or a personal filebox, until September 1, 2005. This will give you and others the opportunity to update bookmarks and links.

Following is information on the new addresses (URLs) you will need:

For organizational fileboxes that were moved to the Web Hosting service, you will now have access to advanced features, such as Web usage statistics, databases, and PHP. For more information on Virginia Tech's Web Hosting service, refer to the Web Hosting Service (http://computing.vt.edu/webhosting) page. The new URLs you need are as follows:
- The new Web Hosting server URL is http://www.[Your Site Name]
  Note: Replace [Your Site Name] with your site name.
  
  Examples:
  - http://www.abcd.org.vt.edu
  - http://www.abcd.vt.edu

The new URL to use in configuring WebDrive and Goliath is https://www.hosting.vt.edu/www.[Your Site Name]

For organizational fileboxes that were moved to personal fileboxes, here are the new URLs:
