As a minimum, you are going to need some type of web server running on the HP box. A good one at a good price (free!) is Apache. It is available precompiled at the porting center at http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Networking/WWW/apache-1.3.12/ It is relatively easy to configure. There is all sorts of support and documentation for this software at www.apache.org

If you are looking for a way to manage your server through a web interface, you might want to look at HP's Central Web console:

If you just want a web server on your server - actually depending on your server you may have Netscape Fastrack pre-installed... check your documentation - otherwise, you could try installing apache http://www.apache.org

Go with Apache...its free and easy to install. It start httpd daemons on your server that listens through port 80. Works like a champ.
