running wodhttpd as server (General questions)

by Klinzter, Tuesday, May 18, 2010, 01:31 (5302 days ago)

hello there,
I am using the wodhttp to make a simple get to a website..
is it possible that I can use wodhttp to listen on port 8080 and I make firefox connect to the app and when I search a webpage the app will do the GET.. something like a web tunnel with the wodhttp.dll

Klintzer,

Are you reffering to wodHttpDLX or wodWebServer (wodHttpd.dll)?

We have both, Http Client (wodHttpDLX) and Http Server (wodWebServer). Why don't you try out wodWebServer?

If you want it to run on port 8080, simply change it's Port property to 8080.

Klintzer,

wodHttpDLX doesn't listen for incoming connections, so the answer would be no. It can't be a proxy tunnel.

You could perhaps try accomplishing that by creating your own listening socket, which would trigger wodhttp to do a GET request, but that goes out of the scope of the component.

Or, you can try using wodSSHTunnel for that.
