Detailed Information About the JGOFS Distributed Database Management System (DDMS)
HTTP daemon
We use the Hypertext Transport Protocol Daemon (HTTPD) from the
National Center for Supercomputer Applications, NCSA. This software is
intended to
- Serve HTML pages, including graphics, and other static
information to users on the World-Wide Web.
- Start programs on the server machine, using what's called the
Common Gateway Interface (CGI), which can take information from the
request and construct pages or graphic information to be sent back to
the user. This ability is used by our data
server.
