This is a simple HTTP server written in C that handles GET requests. It serves static files from the local directory. The server is configured to listen on a specified port (default is 8080) and supports customization of the port through a command-line argument.
Compile the code using a C compiler, for example:
gcc poc_webserver.c -o poc_webserverRun the compiled binary with optional port specification:
./poc_webserver -p <port>By default, the server will use port 8080 if no port is specified.
- Listens for incoming connections on the specified port.
- Handles GET requests and serves corresponding files from the local directory.
- Logs incoming requests with client IP, port, requested file, and timestamp.
- This code uses standard C libraries and should work on most Unix-like systems.
-p <port>: Specify the port on which the server should listen.
./poc_webserver -p 47891This will start the server on port 47891.
