Any way to get apache running on rasplex?

Hi,

 

Just switched from XBMC. I really like Rasplex compared to it.

 

I ran apache2 on my raspberry pi setup as a proxy to all the apps(couch, sab etc..) on my windows machine. I chose to install apache on the Pi because it would be online 24/7. I was also hosting other stuff on my website like game mods I created and w/e. If my private apps went down, no big deal, but I needed the site online all the time.

 

Anyways. Since moving to Rasplex, I am now having to use this damn crappy Winblows version of "httpd" and things are just not working the same. 

 

Has anyone figured out a way to have apache installed on rasplex? I need to have this running on Linux and being able to use my Pi for that was a real bonus. 

 

Thanks,

Simple answer is no, there is no way to install the additional packages required to run Apache, suggest that you buy another Pi and install the normal OS which can be downloaded from www.raspberrypi.org.
