| POP Mailboxes |
If you have a domain name, you can have POP (Post Office Protocol) mailboxes @yourdomain.
Generic email addresses e.g. info, sales, webmaster are available as required (using aliases).
A default (catch-all) mailbox or alias can be established also and is included in the mailbox count, however this is not recommended to reduce the amount of spam you may receive. |
Any number of additional mailboxes can be established for an appropriate fee, beyond the number allowed in hosting accounts.
An alias for a POP3 mailbox is counted as one account not two.
Mailbox data traffic and storage is allowed in addition to hosting account traffic allowances.
Reasonable use limits apply. |
Included in hosting accounts. Additional mailboxes: $105.00 pa for 5 |
| Web statistics |
Graphical web statistics packages measure and display usage of your web site. Real-time web visitation statistics are included in hosting plans (Webalizer for Unix, SmarterStats for Windows). |
Statistics are kept for 12 months then deleted unless other arrangements made. |
Included in hosting plans |
| FTP access |
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is the means by which you can transfer web site files to and from your web site. Additional accounts may be set up, for example to allow different staff to manage different areas of a complex web site.
Unfortunately FTP is often used to attack poorly managed web servers, so Secure FTP (available through many free software clients) is preferred. |
Where possible, server access is by Secure FTP alone.
One account is set up by default for each web site. |
Time-based service and support fees may apply for specialist setups, or when configuration changes are required after initial setup. |
| Backup |
Standard backup schedule is a full data backup every 24 hours on our network backup and to tape, using a weekly rotation system. These backup tapes are held in fireproof storage. Other backup |
Other arrangements can be negotiated and quoted individually. Restoration from backup is charged at standard hourly rates. |

| Domain names |
A domain name allows a web site at your domain name e.g. www.yourdomain.com.au and email to be username@yourdomain.com.au. Both offer professional presentation of web site and email addresses. Alternatively, you can have an address at australis.net.au.
Multibase manages its own DNS (Domain Name Server) and has wide knowledge readily available so we can readily provide advanced features. |
Any number of domain names can be pointed to one or more parts of your web site. |
Domain name fees |
| Subdomains |
This allows a sub-section of your web site or email users to have a different address e.g. sales.yourdomain.com.au. Subdomains are typically used for a large web site, or when different parts of the site are hosted on different servers or different hosting platforms (even with another provider), or when a separate SSL-secured section is required. |
Any number of sub-domain names can be established and pointed to one or more parts of your web site. |
Domain name fees |
| Advanced web server functions |
Depending on the platform, advanced web server functionality can be established on your site e.g. directory browsing on/off, script aliases, local cgi, login/password protection for directories, redirects etc. These are typically needed in a custom built web application. |
By arrangement, depending on technical and security constraints |
Time-based service fees apply or purchase a customer support plan. |
| SSH, Terminal services and Telnet access |
SSH (Secure Shell) gives expert-level access to Unix servers, and Terminal Services is similar for Windows servers. |
SSH is available to Linux servers. Telnet is not available due to security risks. Expert-level access from your static IP address can be allowed. Access to Windows servers by Terminal Services is possible. Fees and conditions apply. |
SSH – No charge on Linux
Terminal services: POA |
| Static IP addresses |
An individual static IP address for your web site is only required for a domain-specific SSL certificate or other specialist purpose. |
