These are the guidelines and the registration form for units who are maintaining their own server and wish to have a link from the UNK website to that server.

Guidelines

1. The managing unit agrees to assume full responsibility for the content of its server, to comply with all relevant local, state, and federal laws (including copyright and trademark protections), and to comply with all relevant University policies and guidelines. Keep in mind that the managing unit or individuals may be legally liable for links to material violating any of these policies, guidelines, or laws.
2. The managing unit agrees to keep its server operational 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Any malfunctions or maintenance tasks that disable the server for an extended period of time must be brought to the attention of the UNK Helpdesk immediately.
3. The managing unit is free to choose its server hardware and software, but any incompatibility with the UNK website or network must be resolved by the managing unit. Information Technology Services can provide assistance in selecting, obtaining, and installing compatible server hardware and software.
4. If the managing unit for the server decides to change or add URLs of information accessed from the UNK website, the managing unit should notify the Web Coordinator in advance. Otherwise, the UNK website will not be able to access the new URLs.
5. The Web Coordinator can drop UNK website links that do not conform to applicable University policies or local, state, or federal laws.
6. Any desired DNS name entry (ex. Science.unk.edu) must be approved by the Web Coordinator and Information Technology Services. Name entries using unk.edu are allowed only for academic purposes.
