I'm working on web site code and 99% of it can just be done locally, but is there any way I can simulate a unix server so I can test changes to CGI code and other interactive/HTML creating pages?

In other words, I don't want to upload the files to the server to test my changes. Is there any way I can test them on my Mac?

I'm running 9.0.4 on a Pismo 500 and have 6Gig free space.
Shareware/freeware/and even purchased software is acceptable.

Please help!

Yes, get Mac OS X. It is UNIX so you will have no problem doing anything. www.apple.com/macosx
