Changing the Default Home Page Name

When you install PWS, a file called Default.htm is created in the Inetpub\Wwwroot folder. This is the file you see if you choose not to create a custom home page following installation. If you use the home page wizard, a new file containing your personal information overwrites the previous file. If you have another file you want to use as your home page, and it does not have the name Default.htm, you can change the file name that the server looks for if a request does not specify a file name.

To change the default home page

1. In Personal Web Manager, click the Advanced icon on the sidebar.
2. In the Advanced panel, check the Enable Default Document check box and type the name of your file or files in the Default Documents box. If you use multiple file names, each name must be separated by a comma.
