No preference on the web server if I'm not the one running it. :-)

For this application it doesn't really make much difference anyway. I tried thinking of some super-easy little server of some kind that needed almost no configuration, but couldn't find one.

Sure, we can do it on diskpi.

Do you have a preference on the web server? If not, I will probably go
with apache and have it serve the sftp directory. It is also already
serving smb out of that directory as well.

Hey John,

Think it would be possible to install a web server on diskpi or
something to make it easier to serve files?  For instance, for the
class last night where we had 30 people trying to download a 6GB VM
image.

My thought would be that it would only be reachable within the shop
network and that it would just serve whatever files diskpi is serving
anyway, but it might be a bit easier to get to than the samba share.
