African Public Health Internet Server
Introduction
Welcome to the internet server for African public health
schools. This website is maintained on a server at Tulane
University by Dr. Bill Bertrand, but it can be emulated on local
webservers at any location capable of supporting net service
through ethernet, modems, or fidonet. Aside from a sample page
illustrating a public health school website, this homepage also
accesses an html tutorial, suggestions for setting up internet
hardware and software, a tutorial for the linux operating system,
and a brief tutorial of different programming editors.
