[18:51] <androidbruce> seattlegaucho, hey bro you around 
[18:52] <seattlegaucho> me here
[18:52] <androidbruce> ever used nginx?
[18:56] <seattlegaucho> nope
[18:57] <seattlegaucho> do you have a URL (in case it's an old dog with different collar -- bad translation of a Spanish expression)
[18:58] <androidbruce> its an alternative to apache
[18:58] <androidbruce> http://wiki.nginx.org/
[19:00] <seattlegaucho> wow! it's an impressive concept, but if you're looking for just the http service, try "lighty" -> lighttpd ... it's 100% Apache compatible with a fraction of the overhead
[19:00] <seattlegaucho> http://www.lighttpd.net/
[19:01] <seattlegaucho> I've use the latter to get access to simple stuff on servers where apache would've been too heavy
[19:02] <androidbruce> yeah, work is trying to move to ngnix
[19:02] <androidbruce> so i'm trying to learn it 
[19:03] <androidbruce> right now my issue is that after i install it. when i browse to a folder that i've created in /var/www/ it just tries to download the .php instead of displaying it 
[19:05] <seattlegaucho> you might be missing a flag somewhere ... what I've done in the past was to embed the PHP on a HTML file to work around it
[19:06] <seattlegaucho> but that is as far as my expertise on http servers go :/
[19:18] <androidbruce> yeah gotcha 
[19:18] <androidbruce> thanks
