Would it be possible to include busybox_httpd server from oleg's firmware, as it supports better configuration of the web server (supports -c switch, httpd in K26 doesn't).

    No. Tomato already has its own implementation of http/https server which is absolutely sufficient to host a router's Web GUI, as well as custom CGI scripts and html pages. If you need additional functionality in httpd to host your own web site(s), you can install another http server, for example Optware lighthttpd.

    I tried to install thhtpd using ipkg, no success.
    Can you please briefly explain how to use ipkg in tomato - linksysinfo.org is down and I dd-wrt guides don't work in tomato. Thanks for any hints.

    Forum on the linksysinfo.org is back up. Please search it for Optware installation tips.

    Thanks for the advice. I tried hard to setup the webserver, no success..
    My goal was to setup second webserver on router with authentication to prevent unauthorised cgi execution. I tried out lighttpd and thttpd but both of them require more customisation to make authorization, therefore i went with a very easy solution - I copied busybox_httpd from oleg firmware. All the authorisation in busybox_httpd is simply handled in httpd.conf.
