Putting the Web Server to Work

NetWare® Enterprise Web Server provides an important ingredient in bridging disparate networks. The Web Server is installed by default; but if you chose not to install it and you want to build One Net solutions, you will need to install it using NWCONFIG or the NetWare server GUI. For NetWare 6 installation information, see the NetWare 6 Overview and Installation Guide.

The Enterprise Web Server provides all the functionality necessary for companies, both small and large, to build Web solutions. It offers security and authentication using directory services.

The Enterprise Web Server also serves as a host for the Tomcat servlet engine, which is a portable environment for deploying Java applications on NetWare.

IMPORTANT:  Tomcat replaces IBM's WebSphere Application Server that was included with NetWare 5.1. If you have applications deployed using WebSphere on NetWare, you can use the migration utility included with NetWare 6 to move your applications to Tomcat. For more information, see About Tomcat for NetWare.

The Enterprise Web Server allows Web developers to select development tools with which to create Web-based applications on the NetWare platform.
