Quick 'n Easy Web Server

Quick 'n Easy Web Server is a Windows software application whose purpose is to help you manage your own web server or test ASP/PHP scripts before uploading them to your webhosting server. It offers support for native ASP without the need to install IIS, multi-threading processing, as well as real-time server logs.

You can keep Quick 'n Easy Web Server saved on USB flash drives or other portable devices. Gaining accesses to its features requires only opening the executable file because there’s no setup included in the process.

The program reveals a well-organized suite of features. It actually reminds of Vista looks because it implements dockable panels which help you tweak the configuration settings on the fly. In addition you can start or stop the server with ease.

The ‘Home’ panel allows you to choose between several predefined actions, namely tweak general parameters, configure IP address filter, view statistics, check out real-time server activity, alter virtual directories, and make the app display your IP address.

Quick 'n Easy Web Server gives you the possibility to configure details about the port number to listen to, webpages, and default page, disable directory listings, automatically activate the server at startup, password-protect the home directory (and allow permissions to some users), as well as turn on logging options and pick the saving directory.

Advanced setup parameters help you limit the number of maximum connections, create detailed statistics (XML), set session timeout, enable cache for ASP files, and activate SSL connections. Plus, the tool comes with support for configurable MIME types and CGI options for running Perl, PHP, and MySQL.

Quick 'n Easy Web Server lets you access server logs directly from the main window, copy log data to the clipboard so you can transfer it into other programs, save the info to plain text file format, and clear log contents with a single click.

Other notable configuration settings worth being mentioned enable you to add, edit, or delete virtual directories, enable password protection for virtual directories, and set up users who have access to the virtual directories.

IP filters can be used in order to reject connections from specified IP addresses or accept connections only from custom IP addresses. You can also generate statistics, which include details about the number of total connections, current connections, successful requests, failed requests, maximum simultaneous connections, and total time, as well as create several reports (e.g. All HTTP requests, Browser type statistics).

Quick 'n Easy Web Server comes with straightforward and handy features for helping you set up your web server, track connections, and block specific IP addresses.
