Creating the /Webserver tree

The /Webserver ODB tree is created automatically when the mhttpd program is first run.

Purpose

The /Webserver ODB tree configures the behaviour and security features of mhttpd.


Examples

When initially created, the /Webserver tree contains the following keys: 

[local:dev_expt:S]/WebServer>ls -lrt
Key name                        Type    #Val  Size  Last Opn Mode Value

Keys in /Webserver tree

Enable localhost port

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: y

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether to bind to a port on localhost. The port to bind to is specified by the localhost port key.

localhost port

  • Type: INT
  • Default: 8080

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd which port to bind to on localhost (if Enable localhost port is true). If there are multiple experiments running on the same machine, each experiment should specify a different port.

localhost port passwords

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: n

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether localhost connections require a password. See Create a password file in the mhttpd documentation for details on how to define the usernames/passwords.


Enable insecure port

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: n

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether to allow http connections from other machines. The port to bind to is specified by the insecure port key.

insecure port

  • Type: INT
  • Default: 8081

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd which port to allow http connections on (if Enable insecure port is true). If there are multiple experiments running on the same machine, each experiment should specify a different port.

insecure port passwords

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: y

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether http connections require a password. See Create a password file in the mhttpd documentation for details on how to define the usernames/passwords.

insecure port host list

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: y

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether to only allow http connections from certain machines. The list of allowed machines is specified by the Host list key. Setting this to n allows http connections from any machine.


Enable https port

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: n

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether to allow https connections from other machines. The port to bind to is specified by the https port key.

https port

  • Type: INT
  • Default: 8443

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd which port to allow https connections on (if Enable https port is true). If there are multiple experiments running on the same machine, each experiment should specify a different port.

https port passwords

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: y

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether https connections require a password. See Create a password file in the mhttpd documentation for details on how to define the usernames/passwords.

insecure port host list

  • Type: BOOL
  • Default: n

This key in the /Webserver tree tells mhttpd whether to only allow https connections from certain machines. The list of allowed machines is specified by the Host list key. Setting this to n allows https connections from any machine.
