      • Start with the TCP Server code from class. You may want to implement the TCP Client to test that the server works. A web server will process HTTP messages.
      • To avoid conflict, request a port for your server from my port site: Request Port
      • After your server is running, add a link from your index page to a file that your server can handle. Replace your port number and filename in this link:
        <a href="http://ocelot.aul.fiu.edu:9999/filename.ext">Existent File</a>
      • Next, add a link from index page to a file that your server does not handle, to see your 404 error page. Replace your port number and non-existent filename in this link:
        <a href="http://ocelot.aul.fiu.edu:9999/nofilename.ext">Non-Existent File</a>
    • Assignment 2 from Chapter 2.
      • Start with the UDP Server and UDP Client code from class.

      • Implement the conditional GET. The server should be able to accept requests from existing HTTP clients, like Firefox and Chrome.
    • Assignment 3 from Chapter 2.
      • Start with the Mail Client script.
      • Modify the script so it can accept input from an HTTP browser. You may think of this script as a web server, whose purpose is to send email, instead of serving files.
      • Create a user-interface for the script with an HTML page that contains a form.
        • The form should accept the From and To addresses, along with the Subject and Message.
        • When the button is clicked, the data should go to the port on ocelot that is associated with the mail script.
        • You do not need error processing for this script. That feature will be added in the future.

    • URL decoding
    • Parsing form data
    • CGI script to process form data
• Scripts for Exam 1
  • Write a web server that implements a conditional GET, using the If-modified-since header. The web server only has to be able to return one file, but it must be an actual file. If the browser already has the file, only send the appropriate HTTP response to indicate that the browser already has the file. Request a port for your web server, so we can minimize the chance of students using the same port.
  • Modify the FTP script so that it downloads a file. First, try downloading the README.txt from the root folder. Second, list the contents of a subdirectory that has files. Third, download a file from a subdirectory.
  • Run the SMTP script and send a message to bytesizebook@gmail.com. Modify the script so that it includes a header named X-MC-Tags with the value of your FIU email username.
  • Write some pseudo code that implements a web proxy.
  • Create a web folder on ocelot named public_html in your root folder. Change the permissions to 705.
    • Change the permissions on your root folder to 701 with chmod 701 ~
    • Create a subfolder of public_html named cgi-bin. Change the permission to 705.
    • Write a CGI script on ocelot. Save it in the cgi-bin folder. Change its permission to 705. Be sure the file has a .cgi extension, not .py. Parse all the data that is sent to the form from a browser. Display each name value pair in a sentence like "The input element with name team has the value Heat". Display the request method that was used to submit the data.
    • Create a file named form.html that has two forms in it. One form uses GET, the other uses POST. The GET form should have three text elements, the POST form should have four. Both forms have an action set to your script. Place the file in public_html. Set its permissions to 604. Add a submit button in each form to submit it.
    • Open the form.html file in a browser, using the URL ocelot.aul.fiu.edu/~your-user-name/form.html. Click each button and see that the appropriate response appears for each.

    • Clarification about P43. P43 states that the Host A is capable of sending data into the TCP socket at a rate of S bps, where S = 10 * R. R is the transmission rate of the link. The book aslo mentions that Host A has a buffer. A better description is that Host A is capable of sending data into the buffer at a rate of S bps and the buffer can send data into the link at R bps.
