Mac OS X combines the simplicity and elegance of the Mac OS with the rock-solid reliabiity and multitasking performance of UNIX, making it the new Web server platform of choice for millions of Mac and non-Mac users alike.

Mac OS X finally makes it possible to run a secure, high-performance, rock-solid reliable Web server with all the simplicity the Macintosh platform has always provided. This book walks you step-by-step through deploying a complete, state-of-the-art Internet server environment using Mac OS X -- covering everything from Web publishing to email services, day-to-day server maintenance to full-fledged e-commerce. The book offers detailed coverage of server software and extensions, including e-commerce solutions; new and updated coverage of Mac OS X-based presentation and publishing tools; extensive treatment of DHTML, XML, and Cascading Style Sheets; and much more. It walks you through deploying Web services, email, list servers, FTP, and other Internet services; demonstrates how to extend your site with databases, community forums, Web cams, and Mac-compatible JavaScript and Java code. David L. Hart also shares practical techniques and guidelines for the day-to-day administration of Mac OS X-based Web sites. For every Web professional interested in running Web sites with Mac OS X.
