Look at the apache, it is working like NCSA httpd version 1.3. Many 
people say apache is good.

Apache is easy to install in FreeBSD everyting is there ready, you just type

pkg_add ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/.../packages-2.1/All/apache-0.8.14.tgz

(Check the path)

And edit in /etc/sysconfig the one line:

# Set to YES if you have the Apache WEB server (see /usr/ports/net/apache)
# installed and want to run it at system startup time (this is better than
# running it from inetd if you're running a dedicated WWW server).
apache_httpd=NO

And maybe you have to config someting minor in /usr/ports/net/apache
I have done it ones, but could not use apache after NCSA httpd 1.4, there 
is some differences and users would not have liked to modify the *.html:s 
they have.
