It can serve static files, has optional FastCGI and proxying support, and a rich configuration syntax. To have the gmid daemon start and stop with your host, add to /etc/rc.d/rc.local: if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.gmid ]; then /etc/rc.d/rc.gmid start fi and to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown (creating it if needed): if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.gmid ]; then /etc/rc.d/rc.gmid stop fi
