Is there a way to set up a wifi webserver in adhoc mode?


What I want to do is have two ad hoc servers running. One ad hoc network would host a web page giving stats on all the players and other ad hoc server to host an online multi player game. This way my clan can practice in any enviroment and setting (i.e parking lot outside at a park, motel rooms) without messing with a wired network. When someone connects to my laptop through wifi ad hoc mode, how can I automatically direct them to my web page?

I've search this question high and low on alot of forums and google,but could not find anything relevant. maybe I'm just not asking the question right.

I'm not sure,but I also might want to port forward tcp:28960 or UDP: 28960, 20500, 20510. Which is better for call of duty 4 Modern Warfare 2?

Edit: sorry, I think I posted this in the wrong place. Could a move move or delete this post? Also, what category would this fit into best?

Solved

Solved my own problem. Solution, I used hostapd to turn my atheros internal wifi card (ath9k drivers supported) into an access point.
