====== httpd ======

The name of the [[daemon|daemon process]] that is permanently in a web server host's memory waiting for connection requests to come in on port 80. The //httpd// program accepts a single HTTP request and responds with a single HTTP response. The name is a result of the common Unix convention of adding the letter 'd' (for daemon) to a server protocol as in [[ftpd]], [[sshd]], [[telnetd]], etc, but not [[bind]]! More often than not, //httpd// is actually the [[apache|Apache Web Server's]] process name.
