This is where I downloaded the Links text browser and installed on my PC.

This is where I downloaded the Apache and learn about how to install on my PC.

I also found this size talking about installation on Unix.  I saved it on my
flash drive with the .tar.gz file of appach for Unix.  I'll bring them to the
lab.

After installing Apache web server on my PC, I went to the httpd.conf file.  I
changed the "DocumentRoot" to the path indicating a folder I created on my
desktop.  DocumentRoot is "the directory out of which you will serve your
documents".

I also changed the "Directory" to this same path because it says in
the configuration file that "this should be changed to whatever you set
DocmentRoot to."

I noticed that the port number that it listens on is: 8080.  I didn't change
this port number, instead I specified the port number when I tried to browse the
localhost.

I then created a index.html file in the serving host folder on my desktop
because it says in the configuration file "DirectoryIndex index.html".  It looks
like index.html is the default page that is going to be displayed.

Then I copied all three of my pages in the folder.  I was able to browse them on
my web browser.

I think we will need to do the same thing in the lab to have PC1 run Apache and
serve the page under 10.0.0.11 (I assume this is PC1's IP address).  In order to
server the page also under "PC1" and "PC1.lab.net", we need to put these names
in the DNS name server configuration file, which is /etc/resolve.conf.  Then, I
think we should be able to browse the pages using URL like

    "http://10.0.0.11:<whatever port number>/page1.html"
    "http://PC1:<whatever port number>/page1.html"
    "http://PC1.lab.net:<whatever port number>/page1.html"

The shortest HTTP/1.1 request header I found is:

    GET / http/1.1
    host: localhost
