Do not even attempt it on a Mac. On a Unixy system, like Linux or *BSD,
it's pretty well possible. There are even a few CPAN modules that
implement one: HTTP::Daemon. Randal Schwartz makes extensive of it in
his WebTechniques columns.
But I wholeheartedly agree with Jeff Lowrey: you want a CGI
script/suite, not a web server. You can think of a CGI script as a
(narrow minded) web server extension.
