FWIW, this is probably even easier than when you last tried it: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ twistd -n web --port 8080 --path /tmp 2007-01-31 22:19:34-0500 [-] Log opened. 2007-01-31 22:19:34-0500 [-] twistd 2.5.0+r19505 (/usr/bin/python 2.4.3) starting up 2007-01-31 22:19:34-0500 [-] reactor class: <class 'twisted.internet.selectreactor.SelectReactor'> 2007-01-31 22:19:34-0500 [-] twisted.web.server.Site starting on 8080 2007-01-31 22:19:34-0500 [-] Starting factory <twisted.web.server.Site instance at 0xb79c646c> >Software is hard.
