According to the vendor's site, iTools 6 for Mac OS X and Mac OS X
Server <http://www.tenon.com/products/itools-osx/> ($299 educational
price) provides "extensions and enhancements to the Mac OS X Apache
web server" with GUI and Web-based configuration interfaces.
(A Linux-based version of this product, iTools 5 for Linux
<http://www.tenon.com/products/itools-linux/>, works with RedHat 6.x
for Intel-based PCs, as well as two PowerPC-based Linux
distributions.)
"[...] iTools extensions include ht://dig, a Sherlock-savvy search
engine, and WEBmail, a hotmail-style mail server. Third-party
packages include WebCatalog, a powerful eCommerce storefront,
WebEvent, a calendar and appointment scheduler, WebCrossing, a
conferencing application, HTML/OS [...] a tool for creating dynamic
web pages, and FrontBase a [...] SQL92 compliant database. Open
source packages include JServe, PHP, and MySQL." Also included with
iTools are a "domain name server, a multihoming FTP server, [an] SSL
encryption engine to support eCommerce, [and] a [...] caching engine
with state-of-the-art proxy support."
These tools can be configured using either a GUI application,
"iTools Manager"
<http://www.tenon.com/products/itools-osx/newgui.shtml>, or a
browser-based administration tool. A time-limited demo version of
this software can be downloaded at no cost from
<http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/3515>.
