For the second time in a month, IBM’s Server Group has
established a unit aimed at giving a boost to its Unix and open
source computing efforts.

“IBM has tapped former Sequent Computer president John McAdam to
head up its Web server division, executives said. McAdam joined IBM
when the Armonk, N.Y.-based computer maker bought Sequent last
year….”

“The Web server division is expected to focus on acting as a
catalyst for sales and technology for IBM servers that run its AIX
operating systems, as well as those that run Linux. It will also
focus on boosting systems that run the still-to-be released Project
Monterey systems.”
