Thanks once more: index-file.names = ( "BackupPC_Admin.cgi" ) does the job - using http:///backuppc now works as it should, no need any more to append the name of the cgi file. However, cgi.assign += ( ".cgi" => "" ) does mischief - it makes lighttpd forget that it must call the cgi code

You are right - basic workload is no problem at all - backuppc web transactions happen very rarely. I have backuppc already running on apache, but wanted to have lighttpd to get webdav in support of a local foxmarks server. Again, load is not a problem, but the foxmarks documentation is very in

excuse me if you are really against apache or cannot install it etc etc. I know that for basic workloads lighttpd is a very good web server, but the backuppc cgi interface isnt really something that i would expect lighttpd would help much with. You wouldnt typically have a ton of people on the in
