Review:
If you had asked me to suggest the best book on managing a WWW site in 1994, I probably would have recommended chapters 17, 18, 20 and 21 of O'Reilly's Managing Internet Information Services. But it is now 1996, and Web Server Technology is currently the best book on how to run a production-grade web server. Absolutely top-notch.
