How do I view the web pages I've uploaded?

Note: Your homepage must be named index.htm or index.html.

  1. Start your web browser (Edge, FireFox, Google Chrome etc.).
  2. Enter the following web address:
    https://ceweb2.uml.edu/username*/index.html

*Your username is the first part of your student email before @ sign.
Example: If Rowdy Riverhawk is taking a class, they would type in:
https://ceweb2.uml.edu/rowdy_riverhawk/index.html

You must be on UMass Lowell's VPN before you can view your web pages on the FTP server.
