Yes, Apache is an excellent web server. Which Linux distro do you have?

Linux is a little out of my league but this article might help...

Snippet from 'A Server of Your Own' by Todd Troutman
Most people think that you need both money and technical skills to set up a Web server. Well folks, the fact of the matter is you don't need either. That's right, you don't need a dime. And who wants to spend all that time gaining skills? Learning can be such a drag. With nothing more than some charm and a copy of this article, you'll be serving up Web pages from a box outfitted with Linux and the most recent versions of Apache Web server, Perl, and Python in a few hours.

Anyway..the article is supposed to tell you how to set up a web server with Linux so check it out here.

Hope that helps! Good Luck!

Lots of distros leave WWW/SQL/FTP turned on by default. Guess that can be a good thing in one case.
The web documents (ones that are up on the site) are typically stored in /opt/www/htdocs or something similar.
Tell us what distro you're running and we'll give you a bit more in-depth info.
