Can my group obtain a shorter URL (eg, MY_GROUP.mit.edu)?
If you have a reasonable reason for wanting a short URL (in specific technical jargon, a DNS CNAME pointing to the script server and a corresponding virtual host configuration on the server), contact us by e-mailing scripts@mit.edu. Please include the name you would like, and the directory you would like the host to point to (e.g., scripts.mit.edu/~group/, scripts.mit.edu/~group/wiki/).
You can use the stella command on Athena or via the web to check if the hostname you would like is available. You can also transfer hostnames that you or your group owns.
