- How soon will my
account be set up and ready for use?
Account orders are placed in a queue and are processed in the order in
which they are received. Your site can be uploaded to our servers
immediately after receiving the welcome email, which will contain the IP
address for your account, plus the password for the username chosen during
signup. In fact, we recommend that clients start uploading their site as
soon as possible after setup is complete, so that once domain transfer is
completed, the site will be available for use by your visitors.

- Do I have access to
update my site 24 hours a day?
Absolutely. Whether you're a day person or a night owl, your site is
available for you to update.

- Can you register a
domain name for me?
Domain registration is the responsibility of the customer. TN Host highly
recommends

- Do you offer a money
back guarantee?
Yes. If for any reason during the first 30 days as a TN Host Web Hosting
customer, you are not completely satisfied with any of our services, we
will cancel your account and refund your money for that month's service.

- I see some hosts
offering "unlimited bandwidth". Why don't you offer this?
Technically speaking, there is no such thing as "unlimited bandwidth".
Someone has to pay for the traffic somewhere - and if you check the fine
print of some service agreements from companies who claim to offer
unlimited bandwidth, you'll probably find that they do charge for traffic
over a certain amount. We dispense with the fine print.

- Do you host Adult
sites, warez sites or sites containing illegal material?
No. Please see our
Acceptable Use Policy for policies regarding this.

- Is my site backed up
and how often?
Yes backups are done daily on all servers, a daily incremental back up and
a monthly full backup. The full backups are placed onto tapes and are
stored for one month while the incremental backups are stored onto disk
and kept until the next full backup is performed.

- How fast are your
connections?
Our servers are located in the Network Access Corporation (NAC) Network
Operations Center (NOC) in New Jersey. The network is monitored around the
clock. NAC offers 15 diverse OC3 and DS3 connections to multiple
backbones.

- How do I get my
email?

Outgoing mail (SMTP) server:
mail.yourdomain.com

- I want to get
started right away, but my domain name hasn't transferred/isn't in the
database yet. How do I do it?
You can upload your page(s) immediately by pointing your FTP client to the
IP address you were asssigned when you opened your account. After your
domain is fully propagated through the system, you can upload to
ftp.yourdomain.com.

- Do you have a secure
certificate that I can use?
Yes, or you can use your own. Please contact us for instructions for using
the server wide secure certificate.

- What is the path to
perl?
#!/usr/local/bin/perl

- Where should I put
CGI scripts for my domain?
All CGI scripts should be uploaded to the cgi-bin folder, located under
the www folder, for your domain. Be sure to follow the instructions for
the script you are uploading regarding setting permissions on the files
and folders you create, as they vary from script to script

- I uploaded my files,
but I don't see my page?
If our default "Coming Soon", index.html, has not been replaced by another
index page, then anyone going to domainname.com will still see that page
instead of some other home page. This is the order in which the web server
looks for a page to put up as the "home" page: >DirectoryIndex default.htm
index.phtml index.pht index.cgi index.shtml index.html welcome.cgi
welcome.html index.htm index.php. Just delete the index.html file and
anything after it in this list will then come up automatically. Notice
that "home.html" is NOT on the list and so will not show up as your home
page. You would need to rename it.
