5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a "must have" for Macintosh webmasters!, 16 Sep 1996
By A Customer
If you are run a Mac web server, or are thinking about it, this book is a "must have". It has all the details you need to run a high performance Mac web site, including many tricks, techniques, and programming examples. Very well written and it's by the author of MacHTTP and WebSTAR and one of the most respected Mac webmasters and site engineers.
