Das Schafchen is a basic Linux HTTP/1.1 web server with a straightforward set of features.
One such feature is the Basic Authentication, which allows you to secure either files or directories. Another useful addition allows you to set Byte Ranges and a Last-Modified response header for greater control. Additionally, you can use a chroot to provide an extra layer of security to your server.
Besides these capabilities, Das Schfchen can provide statistics of the current connections by writing to the file "/tmp/schaefchen.txt" when it receives signal SIGUSR1. Finally, the reverse proxy helps you to forward requests to multiple servers and balance the load between them.
In the latest release, the developers have addressed several bugs in the implementation of the FastCGI protocol. Overall, Das Schfchen is a powerful and reliable webserver that can streamline your web hosting experience.
