Form to Email:
Our special form to email program takes the contents of a form submission and emails you the results to the address you specify.

Form to PGPmail:
This utility is very similar to Form to Email, except it uses your PGP key to encrypt the message before sending it to you. Your PGP key is installed with the control panel.

Search Engine:
In the control panel you can specify which directories you want searchable by our high powered WAIS index and search utility. You can then provide users with lightning fast content.

Page Access Counters:
Our very slick looking access counters can be installed on as many pages as you choose at no extra charge.

Your own CGI-BIN:
We encourage development of highly interactive, successful sites. For your site to be truly interactive you need to be able to run computer programs in your own cgi-bin.

Perl, C, SH, Java, Python:
We have enjoyed being the clear choice for computer programmers building web sites. For this reason, we always give programmers the most recent versions of the hottest programs needed to build their web applications.

PHP:
Not only do we provide you with PHP support, but the majority of our system tools and design projects are done by our staff in PHP. PHP is compiled as a module with MySQL, gdbm, and gd support. We are using PHP 8.2.18.

SSL Server:
In order to perform secure transactions on the web using https://yourdomain.com you need a hosting company that will support ssl. We use Apache-SSL on all of our servers. In order for SSL to function for your domain, you must acquire a secure certificate from Thawte or Verisign. You can generate the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and install the certificate with the Control Panel.

Cybercash Support:
Cybercash is an online credit card processor. If you register with them, you can then install the local config for your domain on our servers with the Control Panel.
