Subject says it. I finally (after two years) have got around to installing my Uthernet card and Marinetti. Things seem to be nominally working, but I cannot figure out for the life of me what casper is supposed to do. When I try to connect from a browser on my Linux box, it tells me I cannot access the page, but identifies the message as coming from Marinetti. I see a connect attempt on the IIgs screen also.

There does not seem to be shred of documentation on either casper nor the telnet client. What does casper do? Is it static pages only? If so, where are they expected to be such that the server can find them? How do I use it to transfer files?

Hi Steve,

Casper is looking for files in a folder called web.data located under the path that you started Casper from ... typically Marinetti/Applications.

Did I miss something obvious? Looked all afternoon (both within the various SHK archives and via Google) and failed to turn up a shred of documentation.

Haven't done any Web server coding in years. Do I need to manually build an HTML page linking to the individual files? Is there a built-in facility in the server that can do a directly listing?
