Tenon's iTools Enhanced For Mac OS X Server 10.0

A suite of tools to dramatically simplify Apache configuration & maintenance extended to support Apple's new server OS



Santa Barbara, CA, July 17, 2001. Tenon Intersystems today announced a new upcoming version of its web server tool suite, iTools 6.1 for Mac OS X 10.0 and Mac OS X Server 10.0. Tenon's new iTools 6.1 will include an Aqua GUI that enables webmasters to set up and configure Apache directly on Apple's Aqua desktop. The new GUI co-exists with Tenon's secure, remote, browser-based administration, enabling webmasters to seamlessly switch between desktop management and anytime, anywhere browser-based control.

Using Apple's bundled Apache as a point of departure and incorporating the latest open source protocol implementations of Apache, DNS, FTP and sendmail, iTools extends Mac OS X client and server platforms with a rich set of internet services. Tenon's iTools web server package is mature, integrated and scalable. The package lets Macintosh webmasters realize the full strength of an Apache-based web server, and at the same time have all the advantages of an easy-to-use web server. "With iTools' ease-of-use, top-performance and extensibility, coupled with the strength of Apple's new OS, we are seeing Macintosh webmasters rapidly transitioning from Mac OS to Mac OS X", said Tenon's President, Anita Holmgren.

Tenon's iTools includes SSL for secure eCommerce transactions, FastCGI and mod_Perl for top CGI performance, an integrated, state-of-the-art caching proxy server that augments Apache's built-in proxy services, integrated domain name services, integrated multidomain ftp services, integrated logging, a high-performance Sherlock-savvy search engine. Also included is support for Java servlets and Java Server Pages with Tomcat, support for Active Server Pages with Halcyon's iASP, and mod_dav to support the transition from a read-only web to a collaborative, writable web via WebDAV clients. In addition, a powerful WEBmail tool turns Mac OS X into a complete POP3 and IMAP4 mail server and a fully customizable, anytime, anywhere 'hotmail' style mail client.

Tenon's iTools 6.1 is a free upgrade for all iTools 6.0 customers. It will be available as a public beta by the end of July. The price is $399, $299 (educational and sidegrades), and $99 (upgrade from iTools 5.0 ).
