You can either 

a: run AOLserver on a high port like 8000 and use ProxyPass and
ProxyPassReverse to proxy the connections.  A good thing about
AOLserver is that is runs without tuning very well.  Plus, it kicks
even on low-end Solaris boxes, from what I am told (AOLserver is
multithreaded and was originally programmed on Solaris; will even run
MT/MP on SMP boxes).

b: go to nstcl.sourceforge.net and use the all-TCL subset of commands,
which includes the very nice DBMS interface, the ADP templating stuff
and some other bits
