Apache is your webserver. Go to http://www.apache.org for more info. tomcat is your java servlet server. Go to http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/ for tomcat info. You will also need a version of java running for tomcat to do anything.

The configuration file for apache is /opt/apache/conf/httpd.conf where all the configurations of the server such as document root, port number and other properties are defined. The configuration file is in turn defined during the startup and is defined in /etc/rc.config.d/apacheconf. u need to edit and modify the "index.html" file in your document roots folder i.e. /opt/apache/htdocs, which will be your home page.

To integrate tomcat with apache u need to compile binaries for java and need to start java before starting tomcat. u can start tomcat from the tomcat home ( in default cases it is /opt/apache) /bin/startup.sh.

To integrate the tomcat and apache, a file called .tomcatrc should be there in the root directory defining JAVA_HOME and TOMCAT_HOME.

You can get a deopt of Apache from the HPUX porting site:

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Networking/WWW/apache-1.3.29/

I don't think there is a depot of tomcat, you'll have to download it and do the install manual. You can get info on tomcat here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/

Hope that helps.

Thanks everyone.
Najeev, I'll try your steps and will assign points later, although, I'm not sure if Java has to be installed and from where I can download it.

Java:
http://www.hp.com/go/java

Your apache configuration is controlled in a main file called httpd.conf

It controls server name, behavior, almost everything.
