Overview

Make the transition from "information consumer" to "information provider" with this in-depth, comprehensive tutorial. Everything from configuring hardware and choosing server software to managing security and resources is covered in detail and accompanied by expert tips, step-by-step instructions, and real-world advice. Along with the companion CD-ROM, Web Server Construction Kit for Macintosh contains all the tools you need to make the move from client to server. The companion CD-ROM includes four demos of Mac Web server software; dozens of CGIs for every conceivable function; CGI development tools for frontier, AppleScript, C, and others; Web site creation tools; ready-to-go FTP, gopher, and email services; and hundreds of online resources.

A reference/tutorial with techniques and recommendations on implementation for existing or aspiring Macintosh Webmasters, this book focuses on both server setup, including Internet domain, hardware, software, and communication configurations, and the procedures surrounding serving information. The CD-ROM includes server software trial versions, CGI and Resouce links, and utilities, including HTML editors and graphics tools.
