Domain directory structure

When a domain is added, the following directory is created:

/home/domain/domain[n]

where [n] is an integer starting with 1. This directory is owned by the domain administrator.

To simplify correlation between a domain's real name and domain[n], a soft link matching the domain's FQDN is linked to the /home/domain/domain[n] directory. This provides the administrator with easier access to the domain, and is not required for system operation

Domains have the following sub-directories:

Sub-directory

Description

/bin

Directory for binary executables (utilities and applications)

/etc

Directory for configuration files

/lib

Directory for shared application libraries

/logs

Directory for log files, and the configuration file for log rotation

/users

Directory for user home directories

/web

Directory for web files for the domain (images, CGI scripts, html, etc.); if the domain is permitted to run CGI-based applications, they must be placed in the /home/domain/domain[n]/web/cgi-bin/ directory

Each user's home directory contains a web directory for publishing personal Web pages.
