5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a "must have" for Macintosh webmasters!
If you are run a Mac web server, or are thinking about it, this book is a "must have".

Very well written and it's by the author of MacHTTP and WebSTAR and one of the most respected Mac webmasters and site engineers.

1.0 out of 5 stars Good book for 1996...but not 2000

This review is from: Planning and Managing Web Sites on the Macintosh: The Complete Guide to Webstar and Machttp (Paperback)
In brief, this book has not been updated since 1996. Much of its information (and the contents of the companion CD-ROM) is sorely outdated.

The introductory chapters, which give an encapsulated history of the Internet and the Web (and all the terminology that goes with it), are interesting. But after that, it's basically an abridged Webstar 1.2 manual. The latter chapters on CGI scripting are still helpful.

Those interested in specifically learning about running and managing your own site server are better off going online or just reading the current Webstar manual.
