      I was thinking of starting a very small webpage, I however am trying to be as energy efficient as possible and not use another computer on 24/7 if possible. I was curious if it is possible to run a webpage on my pfsense box, as well as the pfsense, and how I would go about doing this if it is possible. I do understand that it lowers the security of the pfsense, and putting a webpage on hardware firewall is never a good idea, but for that matter playing with antennas in lightning is not a good idea either but I do it. :) Thank you for all your help in advance.

        As you said, this is a very dumb idea.

        You may be willing to do very dumb things, but asking someone to help you do very dumb things is another story.  If you want to shoot yourself in the foot, you'll need to figure out how to do it all by yourself.

          You'll find at least one other thread on the subject.

              Just remember, when you run into problems in future and post looking for help, mention what you've done. It is entirely possible that your problems may be linked to the changes you've made doing this.
