23 Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).
24
25-d|--httpd::
26 The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed.
27 Command-line options may be specified here, and the
28 configuration file will be added at the end of the command-line.
29 Currently, lighttpd and apache2 are the only supported servers.
30 (Default: lighttpd)
31
32-m|--module-path::
33 The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache).
34 (Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules)

46 Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
47 any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.

51 any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance,
