NAME

       httpd, echo - HTTP server

SYNOPSIS

       http/httpd [ -n namespace ] srvname netname netdir

       http/echo [ -n namespace ] [ -d domain ] [ -r remoteip ] method version uri [ search ]

DESCRIPTION

       Httpd  serves  the file system described by namespace (default /lib/namespace.http), using version 1.0 of the HTTP protocol.  It is usually
       executed by listen(8) in response to an incoming call on TCP port 80, the HTTP port.  Srvname is the name of the service invoked, typically
       tcp80, netname is the name of the network, typically TCP, and netdir is the network directory for the connection.

       Httpd  supports only the GET and HEAD methods of the HTTP protocol.  The Content-type (default application/octet-stream) and Content-encod-
       ing (default binary) of a file are determined by looking for suffixes of the file name in /sys/lib/http.

       If the requested URI begins with /magic/server/, httpd executes the file /bin/http/server to finish servicing the  request.   Method,  ver-
       sion,  and  uri	are  those  received  on  the first line of the request, which is the only line read by httpd before executing the magical
       server.

       Echo is a trivial server that just returns the method, URI, any search, and the headers sent by the client.

NAME

       httpd - Apache hypertext transfer protocol server

SYNOPSIS

       httpd [ -d serverroot ] [ -f config ] [ -C directive ] [ -c directive ] [ -D parameter ]

       httpd [ -h ] [ -l ] [ -L ] [ -v ] [ -V ] [ -t ] [ -X ]

DESCRIPTION

       httpd  is  the Apache HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server program. It is designed to be run as a standalone daemon process. When used
       like this it will create a pool of child processes to handle requests. To stop it, send a TERM signal to the initial (parent) process.  The
       PID of this process is written to a file as given in the configuration file.

       This  manual  page only lists the command line arguments. For details of the directives necessary to configure httpd see the Apache manual,
       which is part of the Apache distribution or can be found at http://httpd.apache.org/. Paths in this manual may not reflect  those  compiled
       into httpd.

OPTIONS

       -d serverroot
		   Set	the initial value for the ServerRoot directive to serverroot. This can be overridden by the ServerRoot command in the con-
		   figuration file. The default is /etc/httpd.

       -f config   Execute the commands in the file config on startup. If config does not begin with a /, then it is taken to be a  path  relative
		   to the ServerRoot. The default is conf/httpd.conf.

       -C directive
		   Process the configuration directive before reading config files.

       -c directive
		   Process the configuration directive after reading config files.

       -D parameter
		   Sets  a  configuration  parameter which can be used with <IfDefine>...</IfDefine> sections in the configuration files to condi-
		   tionally skip or process commands.

       -h	   Output a short summary of available command line options.

       -l	   Output a list of modules compiled into the server.

       -L	   Output a list of directives together with expected arguments and places where the directive is valid.

       -S	   Show the settings as parsed from the config file (currently only shows the virtualhost settings).

       -t	   Run syntax tests for configuration files only. The program immediately exits after these syntax parsing with  either  a  return
		   code of 0 (Syntax OK) or return code not equal to 0 (Syntax Error).	If -D DUMP_VHOSTS is also set, details of the virtual host
		   configuration will be printed.

       -v	   Print the version of httpd , and then exit.

       -V	   Print the version and build parameters of httpd , and then exit.

       -X	   Run httpd in debug mode.  Only one worker will be started and the server will not detach from the console.
