• suggested technical reasons that Apache, IIS, and other web servers don't interoperate with HTTPFS:
  • [Thomas M] httpfs doesn't handle   transfer-encoding:chunked   properly
    • [Thomas M] chunked encoding is only a problem when  content-length:  is missing
  • httpfs doesn't handle 301 redirects properly, but Apache sends a 301 redirect when you leave off the final slash in a directory URL
  
  
• web servers that DO work stock with httpfs
  • monkeyd
    • yes, works great
    • detailed instructions for using the monkeyd that's included inside SLAX
      • But that's how things worked in the OLD version. In v6.1.2, the boot menu includes this:
        • autoexec=
        • /boot/pxelinux.cfg/start;
        • /boot/pxelinux.cfg/web/start;
        • xconf;
        • telinit 4
      • after running web/start, you can visit http://localhost/slax/base/ to see the modules available.
  
  
• several people report that Apache works just fine! (??)
