Submitting Files

  • The intent is to display view graphs or poster materials; copies of the article you plan to submit for the proceedings are inappropriate. This is a violation of copyright laws.

  • For small files (<2 MB) you may email them directly to the webmaster at: myersjd@milkyway.gsfc.nasa.gov. Please include in the email your name and whether the file contains your presentation slides, your write-up, or your poster.

  • For files over 2 MB, please use anonymous ftp to send your files. PLEASE READ ALL of the following before submitting anything.

  • Submitted files will be linked to the GAMMA 2001 Presentations and Posters page as soon possible after they are received.

To ftp your file(s):
  • ftp to: lheaftp.gsfc.nasa.gov

    If you have your browser configured to use an ftp program for ftp links, you may just follow the link above to reach the server.

  • login as:
    username: anonymous
    password: your email address (e.g., joe@fun.com)

  • change directories:
    cd pub
    cd incoming

  • Set the transfer type (BINARY or ASCII).

  • Confirm your filenames conform to the naming guidelines below. Filenames MUST following these guidelines in order to be received properly.

  • Submit your files.

Guideline for Filenames
  • Any files that do not follow this naming scheme will be deleted by automated processes. Once a file has been uploaded, it will be immediately moved and you will not be able to delete it, or even see it at this location.

  • Since we will be receiving 3 types of files from people, please use the following filenaming scheme:
    myersjd.filename
     
    where the filename is: lastname_type.extension
    type: poster, slides, writeup
    extension: ps, eps, txt, gif, jpg, doc, pdf, ppt, etc.

  • Example1: John Doe is submitting a poster in eps format. The filename would be:
    myersjd.doe_poster.eps

  • Example 2: Donald Duck is submitting his slides in PowerPoint. The filename would be:
    myersjd.duck_slides.ppt
  • If you are submitting more than one file of the same type, please include a 1, 2, 3, etc in the file name after the type. (e.g., myersjd.doe_poster2.eps)
