Hi,\nI'm guessing that you don't need the server to handle a big load of users, that you need it only to expereince...\n\nhere is an easy(very) to install package containing the server + php + perl\n\nhttp://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html

From the command line type "httpd -v"\n\n$ httpd -v\nServer version: Apache/2.0.54\nServer built:   Jan  5 2006 11:10:01

If you're running Windows 2003, you should have IIS already installed. IIS is the web server built into the Windows 2003 operating system.\n\nYou can test this by opening a browser window and entering the following address: http://localhost\n\nIf this does not resolve to anything, you will need to verify that IIS is installed and running.\n\nYou can install Apache to run on Windows, but it is not easy and not as reliable as running on a UNIX variant OS.\n\nThe significant difference is the application programming environment you'll ultimately need to utilize. IIS would require .ASP or .NET while Apache would allow you to program in a number of languages including PHP and Ruby (both of which would require additional frameworks that aren't highly stable when running on Windows).

One option is apache2triad:\nIt includes apache, php, mysql, postgres, xmail, slimftp, perl and python.\nIt is good, but it might be overkill.\n\nAlso see http://www.uniformserver.com/\nI've not used this but my brother showed it to me. It is portable (if you want can run off a usb flash card) and includes apache, mysql and php.\n\nBoth include phpmyadmin, and can be accessed with openoffice database.

I am not sure how to configure Sun's Application Server, but why not try Tomcat? it's downloadable from http://tomcat.apache.org/, it's free, and it's very easy to install and use

It depends on what software you have on the server, and if you want to do anything with the login. The most basic way is with .htpasswd and .htaccess files (many web hosts will let you set these up in your control panel, if not, searching on these names should turn up tutorials)

I have been hosting a website off my broadband connection ( 3Mb ) for a while now . \n\nYou will need to have a static IP address or you will have to pay for a dynamic DNS service .\n\nYou can get free DNS for your IP at www.no-ip.com\n\nAs far as web servers go , I have been hosting off a linux box using apache .\n\nI have one system running both windows and Linux AT THE SAME TIME .\n\nThis is called virtualisation . Check out www.vmware.com .\n\nWith this you can run windows , and then boot up linux or in fact any other 32bit OS in another window . This saves you have to buy extra hardware ...

Apache is the webserver program. So you will need to set it up. If you are setting it up on your computer, then you can put localhost and same for server name, admin's email address you can just put yours, it doesn't matter really, since you will be just hosting images anyway. After you setup apache, put all of you files in the &#92;htdocs&#92; folder found under apache directory in Program files. \n\nIn you ebay html file for all of the images just use <img src="[yourcomputerip]&#92;[folder_where_your_images&#92;[image_name]";\nExample: <img src="http://192.168.1.1/images/product.jpg">;\n\nThis should show up in your ebay auction, but you will need to test, test and test.\n\nTo get your computer ip address just go to: www.myipaddress.com and it will show you your public ip address. \n\nOne more issue here, if your ISP change your ip external IP address you will lose all of the images in your auctions.\n\nThe other thing is that your computer will also need to be on at all times. And make sure you have a pretty good bandwidth especially at the end of the auction. You don't want it to crash :)\n\nThats all

it's in the conf file... different depending on how you did the install.\n\nthe directory may not exist yet! \n\nfrom the conf file:\nDocumentRoot /usr/local/apache2/htdocs\n\nis my default directory\n\nthere is also a per user directory for urls like http://x.com/~buddy\n\nthat's specified there too!

Just install IIS or use Apache - setup the website on any port (most likely port 80 if you don't want to type the port in).  Hook up to  your router (usually 192.168.0.1) and use port forwarding and choose whatever port above and point it to your internal IP of your server.\n\nIf you want to have a domain, just setup one with DNS2GO which will automatically configure a dynamic IP.  GOOD LUCK!

It depends on what kkind of service you want. In general if you have the necessary software installed on the linux server or any other server whatsoever you can serve any other OS. This intermediate s/w takes care of the necessary translations.\nFor eg you can use "Samba" for file sharing b/w linux server and windows client.\nMost of the http servers around the world use Apache ususally run on linux/unix systems. \n\nMany serveres around the world run on unix/linux. THey provide many services like DNS,DHCP etc to clients running any OS.

You should use Linux, Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003 to run a website(s). You can use XP Pro with Microsoft Information Server. Linux can use Apache or other linux based webservers. There are other third-party webservers for Windows systems.\n\nGet a fixed IP address and a commercial DSL/Cable package. Do not use the web server PC for anything else. Get a battery back-up as well.\n\nAbyss is pretty simple. If you need more advanced controls for end users get ready to invest some money. You would be better off as a web reseller.\n\nCheck out www.serverwatch.com for the latest on ftp, mail and web server software.

You can't. Microsoft is a proprietorship company. There are other options. BSD ClarkConnect, Yellow dog, Solaris, SuSE, Red Hat, Fedora Core. Apache type configurations are free and usually come with open source services.\nWhat are you using the server for?\nLinux/Unix servers have an advantage seeing that they are compatible with all OS server/non-server while Microsoft servers may need extra software.

Most likely the standard version\n\ncheck the documentation\nhttp://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/\n\nFrom http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/faq/background.html\n\nWhat is the Apache HTTP Server?\n    * is a powerful, flexible, HTTP/1.1 compliant web server\n    * implements the latest protocols, including HTTP/1.1 (RFC2616) \n.... jada jada

I really depends upon what operating system you have.  If you are not really technical, you may want to use WAMP Server.  WAMP=Windows, Apache, MySQL and PHP.  Everything you need to run on windows.\n\nThis package requires little or no knowledge of HOW to set it up and the site has forums to help you along the way\n\nGood luck
