Tux web server

[DAVID KUCHARSKI]

Only that it loaded and WORKED right off the HAT so to speak when I 
loaded RH8 on a tiny little box for fun.  There wasn't much in the way 
of configuration needed to make it work QUICKLY!  I did unload it 
because it really wasn't needed and I wanted the space to try a few 
other things on that box, but in the few days it was there i got a 
pretty good  feeling about it as a useful lightweight web server!  I 
haven't tried thttpd, so I can't make a fair comparison between the two 
for you! Sorry
