Apache
-
Simple question I guess ;D
Is it possible to install apache on the same machine as Pfsense, and with it Perl too? for a couple very basic websites.
-
Yes (pkg_add), but I would never, ever do so. Websites are so commonly hacked, you don't want your firewall getting owned in the process.
-
It would only be an internal website, and the firewall is only used for the captive portal really!
Thanks.
Pfsense obviously serves a few pages, and you can add a limited amount of PHP files. Can you actually use PHP to write files directly with Pfsense though? If I could do that I may not need to install apache.

Having installed Squid & Lightsquid, I can see that light squid uses some Perl PL/CGI scripts and serves pages. like 192.168.1.1/lightsquid/index.cgi
How does this serve these web pages? I know I can add web pages to the captive-portal area, but is there someway for me to add some custom pages like lightsquid does? I cannot see anywhere in the fils system how to do this (using the file browser package).
Thanks alot.

Ah, ok, seems I can add things here: /usr/local/www/
