Nice crossposting
 

Check out httpd.conf. There are many pages out there dedicated to this one file, the magic one for Apache.

That file will also tell you where to put your html files.

The 'cp' command is good for placing files in that directory as well. Try 'man cp' You can try ftp as well, if you have that set up.

Really, a triple post...
