Tenon Debuts Three New Products at MACWORLD/NY
iTools 5.0, WebTen 3.0, and NetTen 1.4 – Serious Tools for Mac OS & OS X
Santa Barbara, CA, July 19, 1999. This week, Tenon Intersystems will
be demonstrating three new products at MACWORLD Expo in Booth 1538 at
the Jacob Javits Convention Center in New York City. Tenon’s new
iTools 5.0 extends and enhances Mac OS X Server’s networking
performance, efficiency, ease-of-use, and functionality with a family
of tools essential to serious, commercial web content delivery and
eCommerce. WebTen 3.0 for Mac OS is the easiest-to-use and fastest
Apache web server in the world. NetTen 1.4, a Mac OS version of
Software.com’s highly-acclaimed Post.Office, is an
industrial-strength mail, POP mail and IMAP server with
state-of-the-art SPAM control. Whether you opt for Mac OS or Apple’s
new Mac OS X Server platform, these products represent fast,
reliable, secure internet server solutions.
iTools is designed to overlay Apple’s bundled Apache. The internet
protocol software for Mac OS X Server as delivered by Apple has been
updated to the newest, secure versions (extending Mac OS X Server
network security) and enhanced with Tenon’s browser-based point and
click interface. Included with iTools is SSL 3.0 to support multiple
secure virtual hosts and certificates from authorized CAs,
state-of-the-art caching and advanced proxy services that augment the
built-in Apache proxy services, a Sherlock-savvy high-performance
search engine, and support for WebObjects.
WebTen lets Mac OS users enjoy the same strength and sophistication
of Apache, with the same supporting services – sophisticated proxy
service, the Sherlock-savvy search engine, state-of-the-art DNS and
multihoming FTP services – all with the ease of a secure point and
click interface. WebTen 3.0 includes support for enhanced SSL
certificates and dynamically loadable modules, to make extending a
Mac OS web server with standard Apache modules as simple as a “drag
and drop” into a Modules folder.
Both iTools and WebTen 3.0 include anytime, anywhere WEBmail, a fully
customizable ‘hotmail’-style web-based mail service that lets users
read their mail from standard SMTP POP or IMAP accounts and also
supports local ‘sendmail’ accounts, allowing ISPs to offer free mail
accounts to clients. When iTools and WebTen 3.0 are released, they
will each include demo versions of WebCrossing, Lundeen’s web
conferencing software, WebEvent, Matador Design’s web-calendar
application, and Aestiva’s HTML/OS, a tool for building dynamic web
sites. At MACWORLD, both iTools and WebTen will be demonstrated with
WebCatalog, the leading eCommerce solution for Mac OS and Mac OS X
Server from Pacific Coast.
In addition to these eCommerce web solutions, Tenon will demonstrate
NetTen 1.4, a new version of Tenon’s mail, POP mail, and IMAP server.
NetTen is the most robust, scalable, easy-to-administer,
high-performance, multidomain mail server solution for Mac OS.
Tenon’s powerful mail server has the ability to pre-screen incoming
messages, discarding unwanted mail according to a sophisticated set
of filtering rules. Today Post.Office is being used by more than
twenty-five million mailboxes worldwide. Now with NetTen, Macintosh
users can enjoy Software.com’s premier mail server software.
Founded in 1989, Tenon Intersystems is a leader in high-performance
networking. Tenon technology, combined with the power of Apple’s
G3-based machines, is providing the framework for world-class
networking on the Macintosh. WebTen was recently selected as the
MACWORLD Editor’s Choice for Best Server Software, outpacing WebSTAR
and Apple’s ASIP. Tenon Intersystems can be reached in the U.S. at
