NetPresenz, written by Peter N. Lewis for Stairways Software Pty Ltd, is a World Wide Web and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server developed for use on the classic Mac OS.[1] The software was initially called FTPd but was rebranded NetPresenz.[2] In 1994 Network World stated that it was "by far the most common" FTP server application and server extension used on the Macintosh.[3] It is considered the most significant FTP daemon available for the Macintosh platform, with added Web and Gopher functionality.[4][5] The server functioned on Mac OS 7, Mac OS 8, and Mac OS 9.[6]
Originally a shareware package,[2] NetPresenz was rendered obsolete by increasing functionality in the Mac OS and has been made freeware.[7]
