SCS Web Help

If the URL you're looking for doesn't work, try these:

Some hard-to-get-to popular sites

Mark Kantrowitz's Financial Aid site is no longer available via the SCS server. Its new home is http://www.finaid.org.
Another common typo is in the Rhyming Dictionary URL:
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dougb/rhyme.html (not ~dough!).
The Chrisman pedigree that was at http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ldc and http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/user/ldc/www is now at:
http://www.angelfire.com/or/aleonc
John Greiner's Investment/Mutual fund pages were under http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~jdg/ He has moved to
http://www.cs.rice.edu/~greiner/
mdwheel's soccer pages have moved to
http://www.sams-army.com.
Aaron Greenhouse's television pages (i.e. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~aarong/upn/upn.html) have moved to:
http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~aaron2/aaron.html
If the URL begins with http://www.cs.cmu.edu:8001/..., try changing it to http://www.cs.cmu.edu/... instead.

Check your spelling

Be careful of typos and mis-capitalizations. The SCS server is case-dependent. So http://www.cs.cmu.edu/Gar/Bage.html is not the same as http://www.cs.cmu.edu/gar/bage.html.
The file-naming convention here is *.html, so if the URL ends in .htm, add an l to the end and try again.
If the URL looks like http://www.cs.cmu.edu/-foo/, change it to http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~foo/

Turn the .html file into a directory

If http://www.cs.cmu.edu/gar/bage.html doesn't work, try http://www.cs.cmu.edu/gar/bage/.

Try searching further up the hierarchy

If http://www.cs.cmu.edu/gar/bage/heap.html doesn't work, try http://www.cs.cmu.edu/gar/bage/ and http://www.cs.cmu.edu/gar/.

Try finding the person's home page

If http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~homer/gar/bage.html doesn't work, try http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~homer/ (or http://www.cs.cmu.edu/People/homer/) and look for links there.

If none of that works...

Send someone mail and ask for assistance.

If you know whose page you're looking for (look for a ~ or /People/ or /afs/cs/user/ in the URL), send them mail directly. For example, if you're looking for http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~homer/gar/bage.html or http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/user/homer/gar/bage.html, try sending mail to homer@cs.cmu.edu.

If none of this works, then send mail to webmaster@cs.cmu.edu.

Important! Include the URL you're trying to reach, the source of the bad URL, and the error you got when you send mail to someone. They cannot help you unless you tell them what it is you're looking for.
