Or you can do what I did and install a HTTP server on your machine as
part of the normal BLFS desktop build. You can then hack the web pages
your HTTP server serves and get a quick, easy (not counting the initial
setup of the server) and configurable network interface for you
desktop.
And if you happen to also have a DNS server in the network, and if that
DNS server talks to the DHCP server, people can access you computer
seamlessly, just as if it were part of the Web (which it would
technically be, if you include at least one link to the WWW).
