1. Create a user account (class dir for web page). In this example we will be using cs3516 for the account.
2. Lock and Disable the account (no one uses it to login to)
3. Edit /etc/group with the account info
4. mkdir public_html and b09 (b09 will change per each account request)
5. chmod and chown the dirs
6. Test the web page http://web.cs.wpi.edu/~cscs3516/b09/xxx.pdf or xxx.doc (by putting a .PDF or .doc file in b09)
