The best is to set up a Web server in the environment you have knowledge=
=20
in.
We decided to run our server on Windows NT just because we know this OS=
.
I don't think Windows NT is better or worse than Mac or Sparc as a WWW =
=20
server. They are all the same - you write your HTML pages and they are =
=20
loaded irrespective of the server environment.
For your home - that's the same as above. Do you have a leased line to =
=20
your home?
At home most persons are running Windows, so I'll suggest Windows 95 and=
=20
the WebSite server. More info about WebSite can be loaded from =20
http://dc3.alisa.com/ (this is Robert Denny's, (the author of WebSite) =
=20
notebook).
Please follow up this if you don't agree ...
Thanks.

Subject: Pros and Cons of various OSs for Web Servers
Could anyone describe the pros and cons of various systems (operating
system, hardware/software, connections, etc.) for setting up a Web Serve=
r =20

Is a mac better than windows NT or Sparcstation? For the office we have=
direct access to the internet and we have one Sparcstation 20 and one =20=
Sparc
5. We may or may not be able to use those for internet apps. Should be=
purchase another Sparc or buy a mac...windows NT?
For the home what would be best?
Thanks,
