hi all,
Ok ive got a few qs,
1st is it posible to make your own webserver in vb.net(doesnt need to do much just awnser a request evrey few weeks)
2nd if yes, is there an easy way todo that?
3rd if no, will it work if i send a correct http 1.1 header back to the browser with content atached?
4th if yes, where can a find example of server header and where do i need to insert the content.

thanx in advance
 
What do you mean by "make your own webserver"?

Do you want to host your own web application to the public?
 
well, im working on a aplication to start/stop and metain apache webservers, and id like to use a webinterface so one program runs on the server and anyuser can login from windows/linux/mac via IE or MOZ or other browser. but to do this i cant use apache to serve the request becouse i need to stop it to reload configuration files. so that why i need it, ive seen it in aplication like e-mule and some other applications.
 
I think its possible, plain html would go okay, but i think images/other binary data would be tough. I think its basically listening on port 80 for connections and sending headers/html code.
 
any idea on how to get started?
is there maybe a dll that can handle most of this? like it forward there quest to the application and i can then sya what it need to do? like send file x?
