The ANT Internet Server Suite is an integrated suite of easy to install and configure RISC OS Internet Servers. It is designed to allow computers connected together via an Ethernet network (for instance, Acorn Access) to access internet services such as the World Wide Web, Email etc through a single RISC OS machine with a normal dialup (modem) or ISDN connection to an Internet service provider.

The server suite can be used as a means of allowing client computers on the network to access the Internet, or it can be used to run your own internal Internet-like system (an Intranet), including web, email and news servers.

Using the same method of installation and configuration for which the ANT Internet Suite Release II is renowned, installation and setup of the ANT Internet Server Suite is simply a matter of inserting the install disc, running the install application, and answering some questions about your network -- and, if applicable, your modem or ISDN connection to the Internet. Once this is done, the server suite is ready to be installed and run.
