Apple II Web Server version 2.0

Apple II Web Server version 2.0 Networking 17 posts Feb 17, 2008 — Feb 18, 2008
Okay, now it's getting serious... I've installed my Uther card in a 64K IIe with a single 140K drive. It's possibly the slowest server on the planet, and is very likely one of the oldest.

It's running Contiki Web Server version 2.0, which seems a bit more stable than 1.3. Anyway, I'm hoping a few of you will hit it over the remainder of the weekend so I can see how it holds up...

Did I mention it's really slow?

It seems quite finicky as far as browsers go... here's what I've tried

IE5 excellent

Safari so-so

Firefox terrible

Lynx pants

Sweet. You've even got it serving images; brave. ;)

No dynamic content?!

Not tooooo slow.

Firefox is fine here...

Not tooooo slow.
I've been tweaking the HTML... it's rather fussy about hyperlinks being in lowercase and tags being all uppercase. I think I'll have to ditch the linked stylesheet and embedded images though. Early days yet...

exaggerated yes, but still...i'm super serial.

that is impressive though luddite, very cool.

Oh, and the "Visual" page brings up a broken image link, and clicking on the image brings you to a dead link.

Again. Ridiculously pimp.

Works great under Safari 3.0.4 on 10.4.

Nuh-uh! That's an Apple II+, every IIe knows that!

DOH! what a faux pas!

Contiki just sooo rawks my face! I need to dig out my IIgs and set it up sometime.

Wait - how is your GS on a network? Did they make ethernet cards for it??

Ahh I get it - Neat!

It's not, yet. I got the GS and a "box o' stuff" several years ago, and I recognized one of the things in the box as an ethernet card. I've never tried it out.

I really need about a 2 week vacation without distraction so that I can "geek out" and get some projects done. :)

Problem loading page. No joy. :(

Will the Uther card and Contiki work on a IIGS?

It's not the most reliable server on the internet ;-)

Yes it will.

It's probably a LANceGS card, since the Uther would have been quite new and unlikely to be found in a "box o' stuff". It will also work with Contiki AFAIK.
