> Is there web server software available to run on the 3k?

I just happened to stumble across the Jigsaw web server on the
http://www.w3.org site, which seems to be an Open Source and
Pure Java implementation. As it does support Java Servlets, it
made me courious enough to download and give it a try...

Looks like it works out of the box on MPE/iX 5.5   :-) :-) :-)

Does anybody here have experiences with that Jigsaw web server,
good or bad, and is willing to share? I have only *tasted* it,
not *tested* it, so I'd be quite curious.

By the way, Jigsaw comes with a JigAdmin GUI, which is not an
applet but a standalone java program. I just noticed that it can
be run quite nicely off a Samba/iX share (using CPU, memory and
graphical display capabilities of the PC). Oh, I guess, this will
also work with Mac or Linux as SMB client, but I haven't tried.

See http://www.editcorp.com/personal/lars_appel/ for details.
