Web-accessible public folders

DevOps team members are automatically provided access to lovelace, one of our Debian machines. Access is granted via their LDAP account which should be configured with a valid SSH public key.

Once you have access to the host, any files you host in your public folder (i.e. /home/joe/public) are made accessible via https://pydis.wtf/~username/.

By default, an autoindex page will be returned for each folder in this directory allowing anyone to view file contents.

If you wish to disable this or wish to display some other content at that location (i.e. a landing page) you can create an index.html file anywhere which will be returned to browsing users.

If you require any help with setting this up please let other members of the DevOps team know.
