It's a feasible alternative to Apache, +but only for certain situations (for reasons given below). For +example, if one wishes only to run one daemon for both the FTP +and HTTP services, they can do that with FHTTPD. + +Unfortunately, at this time, FHTTPD does not seem to offer the +capability of running as non-root after binding to privileged +ports. Not to mention that the code itself is not very +self-documenting... it is of a poor programming style. + +WWW: http://www.illtel.com/pub/fhttpd/ +Author: Alex Belits <abelits@phobos.illtel.denver.co.us> + +--Will <andrews@technologist.com> |
