The Web Server Handbook

These pages are a companion to Prentice Hall's The Web Server Handbook, by Peter Palmer, Adam Schneider, and Anne Chenette. You may want to copy them from the CD onto your hard drive or local file system for quicker access.

For your convenience, we have included links to most of the sites that we referred to in the book. Some of these sites were included in the book not because they are resources that will help you set up your server, but rather because they were examples of interesting layouts or features. We've included those example sites only if we thought you might be interested in the content of the sites.
