5 common terms used for web site publishing.
HTTP - Hypertext Transfer Protocol - This is how the web works. Your browser uses http to read files from remote websites, and displays them in the browser how we see them. HTTP is called a stateless protocol because each command is executed independently, without any knowledge of the commands that came before it. This is the main reason that it is difficult to implement Web sites that react intelligently to user input. This shortcoming of HTTP is being addressed in a number of new technologies, including ActiveX, Java, JavaScript and cookies. FTP - File Transfer Protocol - FTP is most commonly used to download a file from a server using the Internet or to upload a file to a server (e.g., uploading a Web page file to a server). You will most likely use this to make your files available on the web server. SSL - Secure Sockets Layer - By convention, URLs that require an SSL connection start with https: instead of http. It is a sign that a website is using secure, encrypted data and is most commonly associated with shopping cart checkouts. Telnet - Telnet - this is used to connect to a remote host. It gives you a command line where you can read, move and manipulate files much like an MS-DOS prompt. Its use is less common nowadays as there are security concerns when using it as all information, including passwords are sent as clear text. SSH - is a program to log into another computer over a network, to execute commands in a remote machine, and to move files from one machine to another. It provides strong authentication and secure communications over insecure channels. It is preferred instead of Telnet. |
