## Misc HTTP-01 CLI Examples
### Write HTTP-01 token to already "served" directory
If you have an existing server running on port 80 the `--http` option needs to also use the `--http.webroot` option.
This just writes the token to the given directory in the folder `.well-known/acme-challenge` and does not start a server.
The given directory **should** be publicly served as `/` on the domain(s) for the validation to complete.
If the given directory is not publicly served you will have to support rewriting the request to the directory;
You could also implement a rewrite to rewrite `.well-known/acme-challenge` to the given directory `.well-known/acme-challenge`.
You should be able to run an existing webserver on port 80 and have lego write the token file with the HTTP-01 challenge key authorization to `<webroot dir>/.well-known/acme-challenge/` by running something like:
```bash
lego --accept-tos -m foo@bar.com --http --http.webroot /path/to/webroot -d example.com run
```
