| 4 | Httpd is a World Wide Web (WWW) server. I wrote it from scratch so
|
|---|
| 5 | the setup and configuration will not be like other web servers though
|
|---|
| 6 | hopefully by reading this document there will be no problems in getting
|
|---|
| 7 | my web server up and running on your Minix system.
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | This is the web server in use on minix1.hampshire.edu and
|
|---|
| 10 | minix1.bio.umass.edu.
|
|---|
| 11 |
|
|---|
| 12 | Installation: unpack the tarball in /usr/local/src or another directory
|
|---|
| 13 | of your choice:
|
|---|
| 14 | zcat < httpd0993.tar.Z | tar xvfp -
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | An httpd0993 directory will be created and files will be unpacked
|
|---|
| 17 | there. The README file explains compilation, installation,
|
|---|
| 18 | configuration, and use.

| 20 | Changes for release 0.993:
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | - a new method of authorizing proxy. You will no longer need the Proxy
|
|---|
| 23 | entry in Auth and can remove the http://* entry in vpath. The old way
|
|---|
| 24 | allowed for having different authorizations depending on what URLs were
|
|---|
| 25 | asked for via proxy, i.e., you could allow proxy access only to
|
|---|
| 26 | http:://www.hampshire.edu/. Now it is just a simple authorization for
|
|---|
| 27 | allowing proxy or not.
|
|---|
| 28 |
|
|---|
| 29 | - avoids using a Minix 2.0.3 library call that was not present in Minix
|
|---|
| 30 | 2.0.2, and thus can be compiled with either of the two most recent
|
|---|
| 31 | Minix releases.
|
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | - a -v option has been added to display the current version then exit.
|
|---|
| 34 |
|
|---|
| 35 | - man pages added, other documentation updated.
|
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 | Changes for release 0.99: You can set a default in the httpd.mtype
|
|---|
| 38 | file. A mime type with no extensions on a line will be the default.
|
|---|
| 39 | Previously recompilation was needed to change the default mime type.
