Web server and client implementation using TCP

Developed a multi-threaded web server which accepts persistent and non-persistent file request connections from web client as well as from the browser.

Running the code

Creating and configuring virtual machines

vagrant up

This will boot both the server and client machines

SSH into virtual machines

vagrant ssh tcpserver
vagrant ssh tcpclient

Compile the code

make

Run the WebServer:

./Server port_number(any number between 1025 and 65535)

Run the WebClient:

For persistent connections:

./Client server_IP/hostname server_portNo p ListOfFiles.txt

ListOfFiles.txt: contains the list of files to be requested, one on each line

For non-persistent connections:

./Client server_IP/hostname server_portNo np filename
