hello again fellow retro-nerds! i've done a ton of work on the QUIKSERV program i first posted about a week ago. here's the current feature list:
- now fully supports FTP (active and passive) in addition to HTTP
- 16 concurrent sessions, 8 FTP + 8 HTTP
- FTPUSERS.INI file that lets you edit usernames, passwords, permissions, and home folders
- transparent virtual hosting support! yep, based on the "Host" line in the HTTP request header from the browser. if you set up a CNAME on your domain, you can have QUIKSERV use a unique document root path for each (up to 100) - for example you could have mike.example.com requests serve from c:\mike\ while it has steve.example.com requests served from c:\steve\ even though both domains resolve to the same IP
- all activity can be monitored in real-time on screen
- you can modify how many instances of each server type will run, dropping the number will increase performance on really old systems
- optional activity logging to file
the executable is a reasonable 92 KB, and the source code is included in the package. now it's nice to have even if you don't want to run a web server. if you just have vintage PC's with some way to get on your LAN, the FTP server makes it about the easiest way to move files back and forth.
i'd love to get bug reports, there's probably something i missed. all i know is if i see one more line of code tonight i'm offing myself. let me know what you guys think! make sure you read the readme.txt and go through all the INI files to get everything configured correctly.
