Colleges, schools, and departments may provide hosting space to their community members. All users must have a current UT affiliation as faculty or staff to log in to the service.

UT Web users must have experience using Unix-based web technologies such as HTML, PHP, and Apache, and are required to be able to manage files using the Unix command line, SSH or SFTP tools.
