Have a small web server, again I've read that Apache can do a good job,
but I don't want (nor need) all it's facilities, in particular I need to
lock it down so no "Put's" can happen for a start!  The web pages are
simple flat form, text and static graphics, with a little client side
scripting, purely to find the client's local date and time, to select the
graphic to serve.

Two good choices for a lightweight webserver would be:

www/cherokee  Easy to configure

www/lighttpd  Also lightweight and easy to configure

Another good one is www/hiawatha  - fast, secure, easy to configure

Despite popular misimpressions, there are many more webservers out there
besides Apache and IIS. It will probably be well worth your time, Dave,
to spend some time at freshports.org, browsing the www category.
