# C File Server

A simple HTTP 1.1 concurrent file server written in C.

This is a web server which implements a minimal subset of

the HTTP 1.1 protocol.

## Build

Build the server using

  

    make all

## Run

The web server is started with three command line arguments. 

    ./server_[f|p]   

Specify `server_f` for the forking current handler, or `server_p` for the threaded handler. 

The first argument is a TCP port on which it will listen to service requests made by clients.

The second argument is a directory from where the server serves documents to

the clients. The last argument is a log file in which the server logs all

transactions with all clients.
