I am trying out khttpd (0.1.6, I think) in 2.4.18 kernel. But, when I do

    lynx http://localhost:8080/test.html
all I get is
    HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden

message.

- all parameters in /proc/sys/net/khttpd/* are default (ie. server port = 8080)
- I am not running any other web server, so client port (80) is irrelevant
- 'test.html' do exist, and has permission 644

Have I missed something obvious?

Arrgh... I reloaded 'khttpd.o' module, and now it works. Maybe it doesn't like parameters being changed after it starts for the first time.

Sorry for the false alarm.
