Great way to use that old Macintosh
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Many people who have more than one computer in their home have now added Ethernet networks to connect their computers. Instead of adding a new (expensive) PC to perform file-serving, print-serving, web-serving, and mail-serving, I recommend instead that you get a copy of this book and see just how easy it is to set up a Macintosh to do those tasks. It's much easier and cheaper than setting up a PC with Win9x, NT, or Linux! Just about any Mac will do, as long as it has an Ethernet connection (or a Nubus slot to add a used card) and sufficient disk space--a Power Mac is not required.Although this book was published in 1996, it's not very dated. Has great coverage of how to build and maintain fairly sophisticated web sites, including use of CGIs, JavaScript, and databases. The last chapter describes how to set up several intranet applications such as phone books, bulletin boards, and videoconfercing. And the server software on the enclosed CD-ROM is free.If you are looking for clearly written instuctions and advice on setting up a very low-cost Intranet server, or just for a great education on how to do so, this book is just the ticket. My congrats to the author.
