Treffer: ASPEN – a Web-based application for managing student server accounts.

The growth of the Internet has greatly increased the demand for server-side programming courses at colleges and universities. Students enrolled in such courses must be provided with server-based accounts that support the technologies that they are learning. The process of creating, managing and removing large numbers of student server accounts is time consuming, error-prone, and can create security risks. This paper describes a Web-based file manager and editor program named ASPEN (Active Server Pages Editor.Net) that greatly simplifies server account management issues and provides a convenient Web interface for students to edit and execute their server-side programs. This paper also describes implementation issues related to security, reliability, account creation, and maintenance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
