You can use the apache web server as a base for controlling
simple things over the internet. Below are some setups using the
serial port to control servos and some simple parallel port
setups.

Hi,

Go have a look at my website. The webcam is controlable through the
internet. It consists of an AVR,NE2000 nezwork card, 2 RC servos, and a
Display I ripped from a cash till. The AVR is programmed in Bascom (Basic
dialect) and the
NE2000 driver is a standard LIB available from the website.

Web browsers communicate with the AVR with UDP.

Ian Dobson

Below is an avr setup I tried to duplicate a long time back, but
couldn't get the chip to program.
