Re: [9fans] httpd - first try

[woplan9@gmail.com]

Well..  i find this a bit weird.  I was using /lib/namespace.httpd
without any changes whatsoever.  I appended the bind /usr/glenda/web
/usr/web/ to /lib/namespace.httpd.  Killed (Kill httpd | rc) and restarted httpd with
ip/httpd/httpd and it worked.  But i' m confused anyway since,
afterwards, i removed the /usr/glenda/web and it works anyway.  I
removed the bind from the namespace.httpd and it works anyway.

Bottom line: it's working with the /sys/lib/httpd.rewrite and
/lib/namespace.httpd unaltered (with the same content as installed in the raspberry pi img), and by creating the directory
/usr/web, and the file /usr/web/index.html.  Next stop is installing
werc! :) 
Thanks for the help.  I' m sure i will bother you soon
with aditional problems.
