Everything in /var/www/html is owned by apache.apache .
I've left the file permission (read and write)
as they appear in the source mini.zip .

But I'm still wondering if I understand the purpose of the program
If I browse to speedtest.net I'm told the upload and download speeds
of my machine.

I assumed that if I put speedtest.mini on a website
then someone who accesses SpeedTest on the web-site
will get the upload and download speeds of the machine hosting the website.
Is that correct?

I was puzzled why the man who said speedtest.mini worked for him
spoke (above) of a local 100Mb client.
This wouldn't make much sense with my (mis?)understanding of the program.
