right clicking...

WebBrick: http://popbubble.com/Lego/WebBrick/

Beyond that, I'll get into specifics if you need 'em.

You really don't need a web server to do this stuff--you do need, hwever, a

Or if you are using apache and have the mod_proxy module
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html) installed, you
should be able to use the proxypass directive to do this (I used it
once to get a windows web cam working from a windows box behind my
linux/apache server)
