How to set up a HTTP server in linux?
I have rent a dedicated server.
My partner hasn't asked the company to install every thing...
So, we have to install apache, mysql... ourselves...
We have installed apache, but when I type the URL, nothing is shown.
I want to ask, must I need to install a name server?
And, how to edit the configuration file of apache via SSH connection?
Thanks.

What OS is the server running? I'm assuming some version of Linux if you're messing with apache and such, but I could be wrong.
Best thing to do...pick up a book and spend time time reading online tutorials particular to your setup.mitechie.com

Definitely do some reading first. However - insure apache is started by running /usr/sbin/apachectl status on the command line if you can ssh in. If it is not running - simply type /usr/sbin/apachectl start.
You can edit the main apache config file in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf in most cases.
In some installs - apache may have been placed in /usr/local/apache.
Take a browse through http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/ to start getting familiar.Freelance System Administrator, Researcher, Writer
