[users@httpd] Apache listening on UDP ports

[Hermes Moraes <he...@gmail.com>]

Dear all,

   I'm wondering how to get Apache listening on TCP and UDP ports. I've
found an option through Apache CXF framework but it seems to be quite
complex (Web-Services, XML, etc.).
   All I need is a simple HTTP server with one or two simple web pages
answering requests on TCP or UDP ports. Any idea/direction?

With best regards,
Hermes.

HTTPD as currently released does not support listening on UDP ports.

A request like this came up in 2007 (
http://marc.info/?l=apache-httpd-users&m=118950412526067&w=2). At that
time, someone came up with patches to make it work, but those haven't been
maintained and there is no guarantee they would work now.

See: http://marc.info/?l=apache-httpd-dev&m=118899142517560&w=2

Well, you can redirect UDP to TCP with tools like netcat. Not sure what you want to achieve, though. HTTP is mostly stream-oriented IMO.
