Thank you for your input. I am using Windows server so I cannot use the ubuntu scripts you mentioned. How about my second part of the question? I understand why web2py is designed in such a "secure" fashion. I am just trying to find a way around it so that I can deploy my first app. I theory I should be able to type from any machine http://myserver/myfirstapp, but it gives me an internal error - Ticket issues. When I click the ticket link, it gives "Admin is disabled because insecure channel". I have two instances of web2py running. I can run http://myserver/example or https://myserver/myfirstapp without any issues. What's so special about the built-in examples app? Do I have to cut out some code from my app to get rid of all the admin menu and authentication for a general users?
