770 server
 

I saw a thread a while back about setting the 770 up as a webserver...

Did anyone take this further and successfully get everything working?

Lowest power server i can think of...

What apps did you use and how is the performance.

How easy was the setup?

Hi,

I use my 770 as a ADhoc wlan and a server with "thttpd".
It works ok, but any wlan connexion drains batteries.
I tried to setup my 770 as AP with dhcp, but I couldn't manage to.
Anyone tried it?

cool...

I was just thinking that if i could run a web server over wlan (plug the 770 into the wall) i could have a low power web server...
I live on solar power and try to limit the amount of power i use..... as I only have as much as i can generate...

imagine if the whole world lived on solar power and had to be aware of their power consumption...

anyone else have any pointers for me?


cheers

Hi, I'm looking for BIND utils for OS2006, anyone has it? In this way I will put bind+thttpd adhoc wlan and anyone could access to my web page. If anyone can give me a better way, it would be great

Another option is to look at the Linksys NSLU2, you can easliy put Linux on it and it's about 10 watts. Clearly more then the 770, but way less then a PC. This is what I use and the units are cheaper new then even a used 770. Plus they are not that much bigger then a 770.

Well, The idea is to go to any where, and if anyone find my 770 on, can connect to my 770 and browse my web page. the main problem is to tell other users to put http://192.168.1.1 to their browser, so if I can redirect all traffic to my localhost, would be great. There was bind utils compiled, but for os2005....
