It will do it, certainly. MacHHTP is a suitable web server, as the original post said. I would recommend that you patch it to MacOS 7.6.1 as soon as possible - it's a free download. I have read that traditional Mac TCP/IP is much quicker than OpenTransport on older Macs with 68030 processors, tho' I've not notice much difference myself. This means using MacTCP. It's pretty simple and you should find a tool on your 7.6 CD called "Network Software Switcher" to make the change. However, OpenTransport is right there, integrated, and it works, so it might be best to get started with that. > can it work headless/keyboardless (As in a hosting server colocation > environment, for an instance?) Good question! I have no idea.
