Hi,

I am trying to write a simple webservice to act as part of a larger application and I figured that cmdsrv would be exactly what I am looking for as a starting point. However when I try to browse to the machine running cmdsrv it is never happy with the request. What is a good request please? At present I am trying

http://192.168.0.103:1536

as the address I am trying to browse to. I have tried running cmdsrv on XP and browsing from both XP and ubuntu and then I have tried cmdsrv on ubuntu and browsing from XP and ubuntu again and no response.

Firefox appears to know there is something there and waits but cmdsrv is never happy that a request has been made.

Perhaps an example of a well-formed request could be added to the example?

Nick
