There's a Perl module called Net::Server (http://search.cpan.org/~rhandom/Net-Server-0.93/lib/Net/Server.pm) that could be used to easily implment a simple HTTP server for use with something like this. Another such module would be HTTP::Daemon (http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/libwww-perl-5.805/lib/HTTP/Daemon.pm). The installer could be smart enough to ask if this is a desktop/standalone install (and use the Perl module or whatever other lightweight httpd is included with the package) or a server install (in which case it would use the Apache or whatever is running on the server. -- Dan _______________________________________________ Ldsoss mailing list Ldsoss@lists.ldsoss.org http://lists.ldsoss.org/mailman/listinfo/ldsoss _______________________________________________ Ldsoss mailing list Ldsoss@lists.ldsoss.org http://lists.ldsoss.org/mailman/listinfo/ldsoss
