Shared SSL

[netuser]

Hello,

I am going to use a Oscommerce cart and would liek to use shared SSL as the payment will be made by paypal i dont need ot get a private SSL, the shared will be enough I think. But when i look in the help desk i see they talk about htis path :

https://secure.bluehost.com/~yourunixusername.

But what is the unixusername ? is it my domain name folder ?

Thanks for your help :)

It's based on the first 8 characters of your main domain. It would have been in the welcome email they send out.
You could also contact support through the Live Chat link and they would tell you what it is.

Basically, https://boxXXX.bluehost.com/~unixusername points to your /home/unixusername/public_html folder.

So, if you attempt to access https://www.yourdomain.com/directory/file, the web server will retrieve it from https:/boxXXX.bluehost.com/~unixusername/directory/file.
