okay, if you want to run a webserver on the box, i think you can get a compiled copy of apache from www.bullfreeware.com. this file will come as an excutable. set the file permissions on it: "chmod u+x *.exe". i normally do such things in a directory i create under /tmp called install. so you'd get the file to /tmp/install, do the chmod, then ./apachexxxx.exe (whatever version you pick). that will create one or more .bff files. then run "inutoc" to create the .toc file. then type smit install and when you get to the location, put in /tmp/install. i always go down to where it says _all_latest_ and hit f4, to make sure the .toc is readable. bull's stuff normally lands in /usr/local.

its httpLITE because it only listens to localhost, port 49123 (or
similar)
you only can use it with a browser startet on the host where httplite is
running
(also the man-command uses it)

"install/use apache or ibmhttpserver to get remote access"
