LEWISTOWN DNS
MIC maintains two DNS servers, one at
206.127.64.130
and one at 206.127.64.131,
with hostnames of lewis.mt.net
and clark.mt.net
respectively. We recommend that customers list
both domain name servers where possible.

MONTANA INTERNET
LEWISTOWN MAIL
The
mail server is at mail.mt.net,
with an IP address of
206.127.64.140. It supports SMTP, POP3 and IMAP. In most
cases, whenever a program asks for the mail server address
(either incoming or outgoing) they should put
mail.mt.net
in the appropriate field. On a rare
occasion (the Mercury mail transport program, for instance), a
program requires the use of the IP address instead. We HIGHLY
recommend that you do not use the IP address unless it is
absolutely required by the software you are using. |

Your
website main page must be named index.html
if you wish the system to open this page automatically when accessing
your URL without a page name.
How Do I Post My Website on MIC.
It is assumed that you have a website and you know where it is located
on your computer and that you also have a basic understanding of what
an FTP client is and how it works. The first step is to setup your FTP
client, such as WSFTP or CuteFTP to name a few. Most FTP clients
require (who, what, and where) information. Below is the basic
information your FTP client will need to access your webpage space.
The information provided here is for connection proposes only and not
intended to be a course on how to use an FTP client. If you do not
understand how to use FTP we strongly suggest you read the manual
before you begin your transfer session.
If you have a Domain name at MIC
