Beats 512K, but that's still going to be a tight fit.
As you told me I looked at LAMP and Genie. I'm affraid that this is
too much
for a Mac Plus or Mac 512Ke. I tried it on a virtual Mac with System
7.6 on
Basilisk II but I got a -192 error. But maybe the bare bone HTTP
server
would be a great plan. I could increase my memory on the Plus to 4 MB
You need the '68k' version. The 'std' version is PowerPC only. You
could also use '68k@', but it's a good bit larger because it contains
debugging code.
With a small C program I mean something like this:

"Note: this code is *not* intended for actual use, it is only meant
for educational purposes!"
Let's stick with MacTCP for now.
I hacked HTTP4Mac with ResEdit to let it listen to HTTP/1.1 calls in
stead
of HTT/1.0... thats also crazy..but fun!
You should learn programming. :-)

Are you sure it's not a 512Ke? "The original 512K could accept
Macintosh
system software up to version 4.1... With the OEM 800 KB Drive and
ROM
upgrade kit a 512Ke could accept up to System 6.0.8."

just for the technical fun. Hosting one page is enough.
I have a bare bones HTTP server and a POSIX layer to run it in,
currently
ported as far back as System 7.1 on a (virtual) Mac Plus -- except
that it
only supports Open Transport, not MacTCP. In addition to adding
MacTCP
support, it would need to be patched for System 6 compatibility, and
even
then it's not likely to run with less than 4 MB of RAM in its
current form.
Though if you just want a static page and not CGI scripts, that
simplifies
things...
You might take a look at Lamp (Lamp ain't Mac POSIX). Run it on
your Quadra
(with Open Transport), choose File->New (which creates a new shell
window)
and enter `inetd`. That runs httpd on port 80 (and a remote shell
server on
port 23, so you might want to edit /etc/ inetd.conf first to disable
that).
The Web document root is /var/ www. You could also try it on a Mac
Plus
running System 7.5.5, though you'd probably want to quit the
Finder: `quit
MACS`. I don't know if you'll have enough RAM, though.

As I told you I connected a SE and later a Mac Plus to a Quadra via
LocalTalk with IP routing on it. So I can talk TCP/IP over localtalk
and bridge it to and from the Internet.
Red is the rose,
And blue is the sky;
You are insane.
(And so am I.)
If there is some web server software which runs on System 6 I even
could think of connecting a 512K or 512Ke on the Internet.
Besides adding MacTCP support, I'd have to patch Lamp for System 6
compatibility and create a separate distribution which is stripped
down to
the bare essentials. It might even work.
It would also be very
nice if somebody would be able to port some small C program to System
6, but
Do you mean Mac applications, command-line tools, or something else?
And ported from what?
who will be able to do something nowadays...?
I'm sure there's at least one. ;-)
