iTools Manager now in Public Beta

ADMINISTRATION MANAGER FOR TENON’S ITOOLS NOW IN PUBLIC BETA
New Aqua GUI for Apache, DNS and FTP

Santa Barbara, CA, October 10, 2001. Tenon Intersystems announced today a
public beta of its new Apache Administration tools. Tenon’s web server tool
suite, iTools 6.1 for Mac OS X 10.1 and Mac OS X Server 10.1, has been
extended by 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.

The Aqua Apache Administration tools provide configuration, not only for
Apache, but also for DNS, FTP and Mail. Tenon’s iTools can be used with Mac
OS X 10.1 ‘client’ or with Mac OS X Server 10.1. Both the new Aqua GUI and
the award-wining browser-based tools give webmasters more than just ON and
OFF buttons, but instead provide total web site control, extending the
webmaster’s reach to a level that far exceeds what is available with
Apple’s new OS X Server. The combination of Apple’s new powerful OS,
Apache’s strength and breadth, and Tenon’s iTools for ease of
administration, makes Apple’s new platform one of the best choices for web
service in the world.

Tenon’s iTools Manager makes difficult tasks easy and Apple’s Aqua makes it
pretty. The new iTools Manager lets you set up virtual hosts, create URL
Aliases and Redirects, create self-signed SSL certificates and SSL
certificate requests, create realm-based, host-based, and cipher-based
Access Controls, and perform a myriad of other tasks. No need to “learn”
Apache, just use the knowledge you have from years of being a Mac OS
webmaster and Tenon’s technology will translate your mouse clicks and table
entries into terms that Apache can understand.

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. The new
Aqua GUI will be incorporated into a forthcoming iTools 6.5, which will
also be a free upgrade to existing iTools 6 customers. For new customers,
the price is $399, $299 (educational and sidegrades), and $99 (upgrade from
iTools 5.0 ).
