Adding your own webserver to the Fonera 2

Description

• Currently you can only see the Administration console when browsing to http://fonera
• We would like it to show our HTTP pages located on the connected usb storage device

How To

• Start a webserver instance on port 89/Tcp which will host your html files located on "Disc-A1" in the Web folder. It's best to give your Usb storage device a unique name though...it could become Disc-B1 next time you plug it in otherwise

httpd -p 89 -h /tmp/mounts/Disc-A1/web

• Open the firewall on port 89

iptables -A input_daemon -p tcp --dport 89 -j zone_wan_ACCEPT

• Stopping the webserver instances:

kill -9 `ps -ax | grep -v 'ps -ax' | grep httpd | awk '{print $1}'`

Known Issues & Limitations

• process and iptables sometimes stops and it doesn't last over a router's reboot.
• No Directory listing (if you do not use index.html it will not list whatever is there as well!) (securitywise : GOOD :-)
• No PHP/MySql support
