Google got me: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TUX_web_server and khttpd at: http://www.fenrus.demon.nl/ ..both of which appear dead. I couldn't find any mention of http in my kernel config either. We use lighttpd for our dev stuff; I guess it's that, nginx or thttpd, last of which doesn't do fastCGI, so might be the best for this purpose. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_web_server_software ..might prove helpful. -- #friendly-coders -- We're friendly, but we're not /that/ friendly ;-)
