You can install the Apache web server (which runs, if I recall correctly, 51-52% of all Internet-visible web servers world-wide), configure it for CGIs, and run that on the FreeBSD box. If you're setting someting like this up, I'd recommend editing the /etc/hosts file in order to add a virtual DNS name to the box. It will probably make things easier. Mine was "pandora.my.domain" for about a year. It worked fine and, since this machine was resolving DNS for my LAN, I could telnet to pandora.my.domain, browse HTML files, test CGIs, etc. Jaime To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
