Using FMWSC on MacOSX (not server)?

Hi All,

It time for me to upgrade from my Mac OS 9.2 Webstar 4.5/Web Server Connector to Mac OSX.

The plan is to keep running FMU (v6) on a win2k box and upgrade the web server to something on Mac OSX.

I would prefer to not buy OS X server and instead just use the built in Apache on OS X 10.2.6, so my question basically is: What does the latest version of FM Web Server Connector work with on MacOSX?

Does it work without OS X server?

Does it work on OS X 10.2.6 (non-server)?

What versions of Apache does it work with? - Has anybody used it with Apache 2?

My other option is to not use a web server connector and treat the win2k box with FMU as a web server as well.

Does anybody know what the speed difference would be doing this (assuming that I still used my main web server to serve all static stuff, like images etc...)

I know I wouldn't be able to use RAIC, but that doesn't bother me at the moment.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Ben Rashleigh.

Ben, Have you found an answer? I too would like to use FM Web Server Connector on MacOSX without purchasing MacOSX Server.
