I have a nas set up with web-server etc, I want to ask for suggestions on a simple (zero-config) simple to setup way of using the webserver on it to perform certain commands and respond with some information, for example, i want to call /uptime and have it return the uptime string over the net.

What would be the simplest technology to do this, Id prefer to avoid Tomcat and JSP if possible because theyre complicated and I]m unfamiliar with the technology.

Thanks
