Just read up on busybox. It has a complex .config style feature configuration
like the linux kernel.
Clearly TS considered it's internel web server too simplistic and opted not to
build this feature and to replace it with a real web server: apache.
BB has moved on a lot since BusyBox v1.00-rc2 that went into the TS72xx boards.
That is FIVE years old now. I doubt whether inetd has grown much in
functionality since the point of BB is to remain small.
If they don't give enough space for sensible error reporting I'd guess the web
server is ... basic.
A number of important bugs have been removed in those intervening five years so
there's a lot of reason to update and rebuild anyway.
(Like awk can actually count upto three and get the answer right now ;) and
security issues )
lighttpd seems well respected if you want something smaller than apache.
