2.2.6.  Web Server 
ADM comes built-in with an independent web server (apache) that you can use to host 
your own website. After enabling this feature, the system will create a shared folder called 
“Web” that will serve as the web server’s root directory. 
  PHP register_globals: This feature is not enabled, by default. Enable this if a website 
program specifically requests you to. Otherwise, it is recommended that you leave 
this feature disabled for system security reasons. 
  Virtual Host: You can use this feature to simultaneously host several websites on 
your NAS.
