[Freedombox-discuss] FB - Now with thttpd and Zeroconf support

[Christian Brædstrup]

Hi Guys,

I got a Zeroconf live-cd working today with a thttpd webserver. You just
start the machine and connect to hostname.local (hostname being the hostname
of the FB box) that will get you the webserver. For now there isn't anything
interesting just the default page so just wanted to share the hack. It
doesn't work on windows (Because they don't support Zeroconf as I have
understod, but worked on my ubuntu and it should also work on mac).

I have looked into FAI as a installer for the system and I think I can hack
the default system to work from the live-cd. This would be good because then
we don't need to work in the debootstrap environment. I think that will be
my next project. I still don't have a complet overview of the FAI system so
it may take some time but I think I know how it would work.

Cheers,
Christian
