Apache is the most used webserver in the world.
goto www.netcraft.com and see there survey.

www.apache.org - Its the best, i use it on my LAN...
Most distro's ship with it...
Im getting cable in a few months and i'm
going to have a webserver. If you have idea's for me
too host just PM me, except for goosenbury, i blocked u.

Im hopeing to have a "l337 Private forum, where only
the inteligent people on here (and other forums)
get let in. People like:
Myself, Calum, Voidman, F00Bar, the webmaster and more. Thats my way to keep out lamers.

I opt for running Freebsd for your webserver.

Although, any Linux will work just as well.  Apache is pretty easy to setup and use.  In Redhat, the easiest way is to download the apache rpms.  

It will install by default in /etc/httpd.  The config file is in the conf directory titled httpd.conf.  The startup script is in /etc/rc.d/init.d.  To start/stop the server you can type in /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd stop or start or restart.

The httpd.conf file is documented pretty well for helping you to configure it.  After you've customized it, you're ready to go.

Im not sure if you are asking which webserver software to use, or which OS to run your webserver software off of. For the OS, I'd suggest any flavor of *nix, including Solaris, the BSD's, and linux. For the server software, there is of course Apache, but also Zeus, thttpd, iPlanet, Netscape Enterprise, and many more. It all depends on your budget and the size of your project.
