Disk Space
The disk space allotment refers to how much storage space you are
allowed on the server. The disk space can be used for all web
related files including HTML, databases, graphics, CGI programs etc.
Disk space can not be used as personal storage or as a hard drive
backup.
Data Transfer
Data Transfer (bandwidth) refers to the amount of data that can be
downloaded by visitors to your site. Given an average web page
size of 15k, 3GB of data transfer would be enough to allow for over
20,000 page downloads every month.
POP3 E-mail Accounts
A POP3 E-mail account provides a separate user name
/ password access to an e-mail address within your domain. Example:
a separate user name and password that only retrieves mail sent to
icreon@icreon.com.
E-Mail Forward
An e-mail forward is an address @yourdomain.com that gets
routed by our mail server to a destination outside of yourdomain.com.
For example forward@Icreon.net going to aces125@aol.com would be
considered an e-mail forward. If the address is being routed
to an address within your domain, for example support@Icreon.net
going to tech@Icreon.net, then an alias and not a forward is required.
E-Mail Aliases
An e-mail alias allows multiple addresses within a domain to deliver
e-mail to the same POP3 account. For example, an alias could
deliver mail sent to hostingsales@Icreon.net to the sales@Icreon.net
POP3 account.
By default anything@domain.com is automatically aliases to the domains
main e-mail account.
E-Mail Auto Responders
An auto responder instantly delivers an automated response as soon
as an e-mail is sent to a certain address. This is useful for
sending a price list, company information, or any other data back
to those who desire it, automatically.
Web Based E-Mail Client
This features allows e-mail to be checked via a web based form similar
to Microsoft's Hotmail. WebMail makes it easy to check e-mail
from any place in the world that has an internet connection.
E-Mail Lists
Mailing lists are powerful e-mail server programs that
send mail to many people at one time. They go beyond just a
standard group mailer in that there are many commands available for
list administration. To see all the options of mailing lists
read more about them within the Tech Support section of our Members
Center.
NOTE: E-mail lists can not be used to send UCE. (That would
be unsolicited SPAM.) Any violation of our mass e-mail policy
will result in the immediate termination of your account.
FTP Accounts
FTP accounts make it possible to give restricted access
to an account. For example: Icreon.net could assigned user
"joe" a password of "dog.' When joe FTP'ed to Icreon.net with
his password of dog it would take him directly into the Icreon.net/joe/
dir. Joe would not be able to gain access to the main Icreon
files just his own. Yes, these accounts can be resold- you just
can't link a domain name to a sub-directory FTP account. (That's
against our policies.)
FTP Usage
FTP allows a user to upload / download from an account.
FTP is the most widely used means of uploading a web account.
FTP are included in the monthly bandwidth limit, however, there is
no restriction on the amount of FTP updates allowed.
Anonymous FTP
An anonymous FTP site provides download (and uploading
on our UNIX servers) access to any user. All files will be stored
in a directory within your account that the public has access to.
An anonymous FTP site can allows for the ability to let your web users
download files from your site without authentication, or, exclusively
on our UNIX servers, upload their own files, without you having to
create a secured FTP account.
ODBC System DSN
ODBC system DSNs are used as the link between databases
and programming such as ASP or ColdFusion. Using ADO connectivity,
data can then be passed between web clients and the database on the
server side.
MS Access Database
Using ODBC System DSNs and programming
such as ASP or ColdFusion it's possible to use your static Microsoft
Access database with your web site. Depending on your site,
users could: view, modify, and create new entries in your access database.
MS SQL Server 7.0 Database
Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 provides without a doubt the
most powerful database solution available today. SQL Server
is an enterprise-level database capable of handling thousands of transactions
per second. You can dedicate portions or all of your web space
for your SQL database and attached transaction logs.
Pre-Installed "System CGI"
System CGI access allows you to take advantage of simple
programs that have been pre-installed on the server for easy usage.
Rather than installing a custom program within the cgi-bin and
reading all the documentation required to make it work, system cgi
allows you to copy and paste a line of HTML to take advantage of what
our system administrators have already installed.
Java Script
Java Script is markup language that embedded into HTML
files that can bring a static page to life. Color changing text
could be an example of a simple java script.
Java Applets
Java Applets are small programs coded in java.
Applets are many times used for small chat rooms, simple games, etc.
Java applets download onto the client machine and run from the client
computer.
FrontPage 2000 Web Bots
FrontPage Web bots are included with the extremely
popular Microsoft FrontPage web authoring program. Web bots
provide the same abilities of many CGI scripts and are extremely easy
to integrate into a web site. FrontPage Extensions must be installed
before Web bots will function correctly.
Private CGI-BIN
A CGI-BIN allows for the executing of custom programs
such as counters, bulletin boards, and other CGI scripts. Windows
NT servers will support Win32 executables written specifically for
Internet Information Server 4.0, as well as programs written in Perl.
ColdFusion 4.0 Support
ColdFusion Enterprise Server 4.0 offers developers
the most powerful database interaction and web application solution
available today. We fully support cold fusion tags as well as
custom applets that can be created within ColdFusion Studio.
Abilities such as mail transport and scheduled tasks will also be
available to you.
ASP Support
ASP, or Active Server Pages, are one of the best ways
to develop a site on an NT based platform. You can use these
scripts to perform application jobs, invoke software components, and
perform various other specialized tasks. Examples of such tasks
include database queries, business transactions, mail delivery, and
various other data manipulation abilities.
Shockwave Support
Shockwave content
delivers interactive, compelling content which
breaks through the monotony of static web sites. Included in
the shockwave series of tools is Flash,
used to stream a multimedia presentation from the server to the client
computer.
Real Media Streaming
Our servers are configured to enable any real content to be streamed via the
web server. Real media is the standard for delivering audio
or video presentations via the web.
MIDI Files Support
MIDI is the current standard for embedded sound in
web pages. MIDI is supported by all modern web browsers.
SSL Support
SSL (Secure Socket Layers) is a must for any web site that
will be used for the submission of any sensitive data including: credit
cards, passwords, personal information, etc. We own and maintain
certificates through Thawte (Supported
by both Internet Explorer and Netscape 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0 version browsers)
which enable secure connections to be made with a recognized certificate
authority. In other words your browser will not pop up with
multiple warning messages about security risks when connection to
the secure site. Our SSL sites are configured to be used with
secure-orders.net, an anonymous domain.
iNETstore Support
iNETstore is a professional shopping cart product
sold by 121 Software.
Using the program from 121software, the shopping cart is created on
any PC computer and then transferred to the server for deployment.
StoreFront Support
StoreFront from LaGarde, integrates all aspects
of store administration into Microsoft's FrontPage. The StoreFront
tool bar and menu bar are fully integrated with FrontPage and allow
the web developer to access all store administration functions such
as; setting tax and shipping charge rules, all product management
functions, all catalog building and management tools, and all sales
reporting tools directly from FrontPage.
FrontPage 2000 Support
Microsoft FrontPage® 2000 is a web site creation
and management tool that provides tools needed to create and manage
web sites. Because it works like the rest of Microsoft Office
Premium, FrontPage 2000 is easy to learn and use.
Custom 404 / Not Found
Custom 404 / Not Found pages allow webmasters to customize
the page that visitors see when they try an access a page that doesn't
exist on the server.
Mail Control Panel
Each NT account comes equipped with a web-based graphic control
center to setup email items. This includes all pop3 accounts,
forwards, and aliases allotted to your account. Yes, the changes
are made in real-time.
Live IISA Stats
View your site's visitors: what pages they're looking
at, where they have been, where they came from and more. All
live in real time. Media House's Statistics Server is perhaps
the best NT-based server-side log analyzer available today.

Sub Domains
Our accounts allow you to purchase unlimited sub domains
(www.domain.com/abc/ = www.abc.com).
Vanity Domains
Our accounts allow you to purchase unlimited vanity
domains (www.domain.com/abc/ = abc.domain.com).
E-mail Response Within 24 Hours
Icreon assures you that you will never be more than 24 hours
away from help with any question you may have - billing, sales, and
of course technical. Although 24 hours is our guaranteed response
time, average response time is much quicker. (Usually within
three hours.)
OC-3 MAE-WEST Connections
Our data center is located in the same building as the MAE-WEST
backbone! Very few of our competitors can even come close to
matching this strategic data center placement. Our Network is
connected to MAE-WEST with multiple OC-3s. An OC-3 connection
is about 100X faster than a single T-1 and 3X faster than a T-3.
100BaseT Redundant
Network
Aside from being strategically located in the same
building as the MAE-WEST backbone, our network boasts top of the line,
modern equipment. We use Cisco 7500 routers, Cisco Catalyst switches,
and high quality Cat5 network cabling. The data center is protected
by battery backups as well as a building-wide power generator in the
unlikely event of a complete power failure.
Dual CPUs
Our servers are configured with dual CPU architecture
to provide more system performance when it's critically needed.
We use PII, PII XEON, PIII, and PIII Xeon CPU's.
Redundant (RAID
Array) Storage
All of our servers our built with performance and reliability
in mind. We use Ultra Wide SCSI hard drives in RAID sets.
RAID not only increases server performance, but also protects against
hard drive failure. Even if a single disk does die, it the RAID
will keep going keeping the server completely unaffected.
24 / 7 Network
Monitoring
Does this sound familiar: Sunday night your web site
goes down - nobody's at your ISP to work on it until the next day?
Over 12 hours of down time! At Icreon on-site staff monitors
our network 24 hours a day 7 days a week. In addition all servers
and services are monitored by multiple monitoring tools and will page
system administrators at the first sign of trouble. If there
is ever a problem you can rest assured that it is being addressed.
Detailed On-Line Billing
You will always know exactly what you are being billed for,
and your charges will be available on-line 24/7. With our detailed
on-line billing system you will only be a few clicks away from statements,
history, and current bills.
