Running a Web Server on Mac OS X: Apache Made Simple

Posted by Hemos on from the running-the-webserver dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Having recently moved over to Mac OS X, I decided to look into running my own Web and FTP servers again from home. To my surprise, I discovered what many already know... that bundled into the underpinnings of Jaguar's networking framework was a distribution of Apache that appears as simple or robust as I want it to be."

  1. a question about trailing slashes by stego · · Score: 4, Interesting

    On some of the OS X/Darwin machines I've put pages on, the URL must have the trailing slash to work. An example would be something like http://site/~usrname/ would work, but http://site/~usrname does not. Can anyone suggest how/where this behavior is set?

  2. thanks by stego · · Score: 3, Interesting

    That is a wonderfully informative and concise response...
