Website requirements[softwares]
if i am building a website what softwares do i need?
What i have:
1) Windows 2000 server
2) An existing website(html,asp build)
3) IIS services is turned on <---- this is the reason why i can't make my APACHE 2.0 run.. when i stopped the IIS my APACHE 2.0 worked fine.
What i am planning to have:
1) Windows 2000 server
2) A website made of PHP,ASP,HTML and some other scripting languages.
3) Should be seen and broadcasted to the internet.
Mainly my problem is APACHE 2.0 can not run along with IIS services. Is APACHE 2.0 alone can replace the IIS?
Please do give me some insights about building a website from scratch and how you did it detailed or not detailed it may do. My manager also has no idea on how to solve this problem of ours. Thanks for future help big or small will be very much helpful.

Well first off, if you want to use ASP then that rules out running Apache at all. But other than that, yes you can use Apache in place of IIS.
Re: Website requirements[softwares]
so you mean to say.. if i want to build my site it has to be PHP and PHP alone? But how will my site be seen from the outside like www.mywebsite.com
I understand that IIS i needed to broadcast the website.

No, you can use Apache to host websites externally. You do not need IIS. You can write your site in languages other than PHP, just not ASP because it's owned by Microsoft and only IIS can host the pages.
