What's the server side path to my home directory?
If you need the full server side path to your home directory on our server (for example for a CGI script or .htaccess file), the path is:
/var/home/<FIRST LETTER OF USERNAME>/<SECOND LETTER OF USERNAME>/username/
So for example if your username is "bobdobbs", and you're specifying the path to a file called "myscript.cgi" in your "public_html" directory, the path would be so:
/var/home/b/o/bobdobbs/public_html/myscript.cgi
If you have a Virtual Web Hosting account (with your own domain name, à la "www.mydomain.com"), then the path is simply:
/var/domain/<YOUR DOMAIN NAME>/
(Make sure to include the "www").
