    Diskweb is a minimal web server providing two tables:

    - the status of md RAID devices

    - the occupancy of mounted filesystems

    - an index file containing links to the 2 above.

If you want to aglomerate contents from various web services, I
recommend installing Nginx. Nginx is a very nice web server and
reverse-proxy. It is relatively easy to configure and is designed to be
the front-end to other servers, wether http, https, cgi-bin and
fcgi-bin. One possible role is as an https front-end merging data from
http or fcgi-bin servers either local or in LAN.

A few years ago I set up such a service in which one of the pages was
merging RAID status tables from 5 diskweb servers in the LAN.

I think it makes sense to separate raw content production (like diskweb
does) and polished presentation.
