Luon runs many services that also have a web frontend. See the links page for an overview of these web services/sites. With Luon you can also run your personal web page or request web hosting, for more information see below.
For personal websites as well as web hosting we currently do support PHP, but this might me dropped in the future. Static sites are preferred and there are many tools such as Jekyll/Hugo/Zola/etc. to build them.
Personal website
To host your own website, put the files in the directory public_html
in your
home directory on Target (i.e. ~/public_html
). You can do this via any
client that supports SSH/SFTP. Once the files are there, you can view the
website at https://luon.net/~user
where user
is your Luon username.
Web hosting
If you want to host a website for a specific domain, like what we also do for
luon.net
, send a request to webmaster@luon.net
. Let us know what the
domain is and what the hostnames and aliases are that you want to use for this
website. Below we use the domain and hostname mijndomein.nl
with alias
www.mijndomein.nl
as an example.
If you manage your own DNS, first configure the following for the domain @
and the alias www
:
@ 86400 IN A 37.72.100.21
@ 86400 IN AAAA 2a00:8240:5:10::21
www 86400 IN CNAME @
Then, upload the website files using SSH/SFTP to /srv/www/mijndomein.nl
on
Target and visit https://mijndomein.nl
to see the result
We will arrange the certificates for HTTPS and make certain that they stay up-to-date.
