Making a Web server...
 

How can I make my Linux Mechiene work as a Web Server....
I use Red Hat 9.

Hope you have apache installed (httpd rpm)

im not sure if I have that or not....I tried searching for it (find -name apache) Is that the command to find something?

well you can do


rpm -q httpd

ok..i did that, so what are the in's and out's here? How can i make a webpage and post it on my linux box and have it published on the internet?

You can host it as a virtual host (view the end portion of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf).

The DocumentRoot in the virtualhost portion should point to the directory where you intend to put up your web pages.

To create webpages, you can use Quanta. There are quite a few available that can help you generate your webpages.

when i type in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf it tells me that there is no such directory...I dunno Ill just find some free webspace on the internet and design from my linux boxes... Thank you for your help any ways.
