    * start the web server :
- {{{
+{{{
 sudo /sbin/service httpd start

        If you get an error someone else might be using the port you used, change it again by using the following command where <OLD_PORT> is the port you used in the previous command:
-  {{{
+{{{
 sudo sed 's/^Listen <OLD_PORT>$/Listen <NEW_PORT>/' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf > httpd.conf ; sudo mv httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

+In order to test that your webserver is up and running open a web brower and point it at http://plnode-03.gpolab.bbn.com:<NEW_PORT>/ you should get the apache welcome page.

+=== Upload files to your webserver ===
+In order to make files publicly available in your server do these two simple steps :
+  * '''transfer the file to the PlanetLab node'''. You can use scp to do this e.g.: 
+  {{{
+ scp -i /home/nriga/.ssh/geni_key install-mpich.tar.gz pgenigpolabbbncom_inkisrv@plnode-03.gpolab.bbn.com:
+}}}
+  * login to your node and move the file to '/var/www/html', e.g.
+    {{{
+ sudo mv install-mpich.tar.gz /var/www/html/
+}}}
