About the Book

23993-9 All the information and software you need to set up your own Web server: No experience necessary! Nowadays, anyone can "surf" the World Wide Web. But many people assume that if you want to put your own information on the Web, you'll have to spend thousands of dollars on specialized computers and consultants.

The Web Server Handbook's CD-ROM is compatible with Windows, Macintosh, and UNIX systems; it contains the Internet's most popular Web Servers, including those from Apache, CERN, and NCSA, and a 60-day trial version of the WebSite Windows NT Web Server. The CD-ROM also contains dozens of helper applications and Web pages with built-in links to extensive on-line resources-even a Web site just for readers of this book.
