How to install Apache

I and new in Linux, I just complete installing Linux Redhat Enterprise 4.0 AS to my computer and download apache 1.3.33 to my computer. I can't find any installation program from the apache folder that I have unzip. Normally when using windows we would have setup.exe to start installation, but in Linux how do we install software?

I would first suggest you try a search on these pages, as this question has been answered many times before.

Here are some simple choices:
Download RedHat RPM and everything is done for you.. google.com and search for: Apache 1.3.33 RPM

If you download apache as a source-file (most likely .tar.gz)
you'll have to compile and install from there.
google.com and search for: Apache 1.33.33 install from source

Apache should already be available on the Redhat disks or via yum. To install it just do "yum install httpd" as root.
