dwww and dhttpd??

[Lee Bradshaw]

I installed dwww and dhttpd with dselect.  I didn't have any problems
with the installation, but I haven't been able to do anything useful.
When I first started dwww, I got an message related to lynx.  I don't
know why this didn't show up in the dependency checks, but I downloaded
lynx and tried again.  Now when I start dwww, lynx starts with the
following message:

  dhttpd/1.02: Error 403: Forbidden!

  403: Forbidden!
  _

  You do not have permission to access that file. Sorry!


I noticed in the notes that dhttpd doesn't support cgi-bin.  Could that
be part of this forbidden problem?  I started netscape to try to look
into the dwww directories.  I noticed cgi-bin in serveral of the links.
Should dselect allow dhttpd to satisfy the web server requirements for
dwww?

Can anyone recommend a good small server to use with dwww for viewing
the debian documentation?

Thanks,

I'm the maintainer of wn so ... I would recommend wn.  Small,
efficient, can be run from inetd.  Only issue is that it is
significantly more security minded than others which makes its
more difficult to set up.

Boa is another small server that I've seen mentioned.
