The following information may be useful for web specialists or programmers using the ZyTrax YourWeb service.

Web Servers - Operating Systems

• FreeBSD 5.4

• Windows 2000 Server

We have made a stategic decision to base all our future operations on the BSD range of operating systems.

• FrontPage extensions: 1.2 4.0.2.2717
• Secure Sockets (OpenSSL)
• .NET services using Mono (1.1 and 2.0 frameworks)

Our Web Server does browser detection on all incoming pages and sets a number of variables which are GLOBALLY available to CGI scripts. This can save considerable time and resources when building CGI scripts. You can read more if you are interested in the details.
