I've got an old beige 233 mac. I've got a fiber optic connection (which I pay for off or on!) I've got a bunch of stacks I want to share with other Latin teachers...

Wouldn't it be very possible to clean up the old beige, make a massive folder, put in all my stacks and the rev cgi engine in there, start up personal web server and let it all run from there?

I would need to note the ip address, right and share that with others? anything else to consider?

tom--who is very excited about this.

Tom,

Wow classic machine, gotta love those! The only HTTPd server I remember for classic (by 'I remember' read 'affordable') was SocialEngs server which I think is out of business now. I'll propose another option for you, not CGI based but RevHTTPd based.

RevHTTPd is a webserver written in Rev, it's pure transcript based so it will run on your machine fine. If you just want to share the stacks, then that's plain easy, I can show you how to do it, you'll launch the app, your mates will point their browsers to your IP and they will see a nice page with your stacks available for download. If you want to run the stacks on webspace, then you can do it too, just tweek here and there and they will run on RevHTTPd, the new version that will be debuted in RevConWest is source compatible with libCGI so anything that runs in one will run in the other. I think it's pretty cool and that you can use it.

I can assist you on that if you explain me better what you're trying to do.

Cheers
andre
