You have probably come to this site to find a company that provides Web servers or Web hosting services. But do you actually know how these hosting machines work? It’s a good idea to know a little bit about the product or service you are searching for before you begin your quest.
First, it’s important to note that this is a two-sided story. Web servers are responsible for storing and exchanging information with other machines. Because of this, at least two participants are required for each exchange of information: a client, which requests the information, and a server, which stores it. Each side also requires a piece of software to negotiate the exchange of data; in the case of the client, a browser like Netscape or Internet Explorer is used.
On the server side, however, things are not as simple. There is a myriad of software options available, but they all have a similar task: to negotiate data transfers between clients and servers via HyperText Transfer Protocol, the communications protocol of the Web. What type of server software you are able to run depends on the Operating System chosen for the server. For example, Microsoft Internet Information Server is a popular choice for Windows NT, while many Unix fans choose Apache Web server.
A simple exchange between the client machine and Web server goes like this:
1. The client’s browser dissects the URL in to a number of separate parts, including address, path name and protocol.
2. A Domain Name Server (DNS) translates the domain name the user has entered in to its IP address, a numeric combination that represents the site’s true address on the Internet (a domain name is merely a “front” to make site addresses easier to remember).
3. The browser now determines which protocol (the language client machines use to communicate with servers) should be used. Examples of protocols include FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, and HTTP, HyperText Transfer Protocol.
4. The server sends a GET request to the Web server to retrieve the address it has been given. For example, when a user types http://www.example.com/1.jpg, the browser sends a GET 1.jpg command to example.com and waits for a response. The server now responds to the browser’s requests. It verifies that the given address exists, finds the necessary files, runs the appropriate scripts, exchanges cookies if necessary, and returns the results back to the browser. If it cannot locate the file, the server sends an error message to the client.
5. The browser translates the data it has been given in to HTML and displays the results to the user.
This process is repeated until the client browser leaves the site.
Aside from its functions listed above, the Web server also has an additional number of responsibilities. Whereas a Web browser simply translates and displays data it is fed, a Web server is responsible for distinguishing between various error and data types. A Web server must, for example, designate the proper code for any sort of internal error and send that back to the browser immediately after it occurs. It also has to distinguish between various elements on a Web page (such as .GIFs, JPEGS and audio files) so that the browser knows which files are saved in which format. Depending on the site’s function, a Web server may also have numerous additional tasks to handle, including logging statistics, handling security and encryption, serving images for other sites (for banners, pictures, etc), generating dynamic content, or managing e-commerce functions.
Now that you’ve had a behind-the-scenes tour of a Web server, you can appreciate all the work that goes in to delivering a single page of content to your computer screen. Use this knowledge to your advantage, and keep it in mind when shopping around for your next host.

What is Spam Assassin? The Spam Assassin system is software for analyzing email messages, determining how likely they are to be spam, and reporting its conclusions. It is a rule-based system that compares different parts of email messages with a large set of rules. Each rule adds or removes points from a messageâs spam score. A message with a high enough score is reported to be spam.Spam Assassin is a e-mail spam filtering system that sits side by side with account with us to help block, mark or filter out mail you donât want.
How do I access Spam Assassin?
First thing you will want to do is log into your cPanel. From there, under the âMailâ box look at the nine a link that reads âSpam Assassinâ. From here it will tell you if Spam Assassin is currently enabled or disabled. Clicking the boxes to enable or disable Spam Assassin is how you can turn it on or off. To configure the Spam Assassin settings click the button that reads: âConfigure Spam Assassin (required to rewrite subjects)â
How do I configure Spam Assassin?
If you do not know what it is you are looking at, the next screen could be a little confusing. To help you understand hereâs a break down of what you should see on the screen and what do do with it:
required_hits - The number of e-mails received before marked as spam.rewrite_subject - The tells Spam Assassin if it should rewrite your subject line or not as you define. (1 is yes and 0 is no)
subject_tag - What the spam is marked with in the subject line. (usually ***SPAM*** or something else that could be picked up by your own mail filters on your mail client of choice)
blacklist_from - An e-mail address you definitely want to be marked as spam. (you could also use *@something.com to get every email from that address filtered)
whitelist_from - An e-mail address you definitely do NOT want to be marked as spam. (you could also use *@something.com to get every email from that address NOT filtered)
Once youâre done, just hit save and whatever you defined on the earlier page will now be in effect. If you picked to rewrite the subject, then you could now go into your mail client and write a new âruleâ that would filter all mail with â***SPAM***â to go into a SPAM folder so that you could check it from time to time making sure you did not get any false positives.
How do I use the Spam Box?
You can turn your spam box enable and disable from the same page as Spam Assassin. Itâs just that easy! With the recent upgrades to cPanel, the TotalChoice Hosting team has been paying more attention to the users of Spam Assassin.
In the previous build you would need to use a imap client to get to your spam box.
Well not anymore. You can create a ânewâ e-mail account that has precisely the same settings as your e-mail account, but add: â/spamâ to the end of the e-mail account user name. This will retrieve only your Spam box mail.
In order for this to be useful, you will want to set up your e-mail client to deliver this Spam Box mail to a special folder (perhaps called spam?) automatically.

Comment Spamming is one of the major problem faced by all the blog owners. Spammers are not interested to redirect your traffic but are trying to increase their (or their clientâs ) search engine ranking. By leaving comments on your site, the spammersâ sites can achieve a slightly higher search engine ranking.Spammers donât want to degrade your site but they just want to get people to their sites and make a larger profit.
How to tackle this comment spamming ?
*) Donât ban specific IP address :
Once you got the spammerâs IP address you would normally banned it, but it rarely helps you much as most comment-spammers make use of âopen proxies â using which they have their spam comments, so you never be able to eradicate them from your site.
*) Donât allow to insert HTML code.
Spammers generally attack your site if you provide them any source for getting into your site such as inserting some html code or anything like that.
If you feel the need to allow the user to include links, there are a number of ways by which you can provide them this functionality, without making your site vulnerable to attack. The most common method is to inform the user that all URLs will be converted to links automatically, then convert any content that starts with http:// to a link.
*) Use Non-Descriptive Form Names.
Good programming requires the use of descriptive names, but in avoiding comment spam, you should stay away from names that describe a formâs fields. Form element names like âCommentâ make it too easy for spammers to access your comment system.
*) Use rel=ânofollowâ for All Links.
For any reason, you want to allow your visitor to include links in their comments, then donât forget to add rel=ânofollowâ tag, doing so you informs search engines bots to ignore the link, so the spammer gains no benefit from adding links in their comments.
