Tools we use at CNAM for the Web server

accents

A very short script to translate the most common (in French) ISO Latin-1 characters to HTML escape sequences. The distribution is a simple Perl script and is here. We don't use it any more. It's much better to use the charconv program (use Archie to find an other location if the site is overloaded).

url_get

A script to retrieve URLs in "batch" (in "line mode"). The distribution (in compressed tar) can be retrieved by selecting this one. But you may prefer the official distribution.

token_server

This is a program to limit access to some famous services. Client programs ask for tokens which are granted if there are not already too many of them. You can see it here. A more complete documentation ( in French only) is here.

CNAM HTTP server

We use a server which was developed locally. The tar file of the source of the server is not anymore available, because it was too much work to make a package for each new version of the server. Our Web server has nice load control abilities. If you are interested by these characteristics feel free to ask for information to Pascal Courtois <courtois@cnam.fr>
