Plexus HTTPD Server Setup

plexus.conf

Almost everything you need to customize is in the plexus.conf file (default port assignments, data locations, feature customizations, etc.) There are two environment variables that may be set:
$HTTPD
Specifies the server directory (default: /usr/local/www).
$HTTPD_CONF
Specifies the Plexus config file (default: server/plexus.conf).

plexus

Usage: plexus [port]

When the server first executes it can be run as root (this is required to access the standard HTTP port 80). By default, if run as root, it will open the standard HTTP port (defaults to $http_defaultport but can be overridden in /etc/services or on the command line for plexus). If running as a normal user the default port is $http_userport and can be changed in the plexus.conf file or from the command line. After the socket is setup plexus executes the program specified by $http_server passing it: the path to the config file; the port number used; a boolean, true if started as root; and the file descriptor number of the open socket.
