welp, a server with asp installed is a good start. Apache has somthing that might work for yourself here. It runs under linux i think if that's the route that you are going. A good book would also be a good start. i like php better though...but that's just me.

For ASP, Microsoft's IIS is a good start, but you can get ASP modules for apache which is a much cheaper (free) alternative.

ASP vs. ASP.NET

Overmind:

Well, first of all I think you need to admit your a geek, like the rest of us. Or did I miss the joke when you called yourself a palladin?

Anyways, I would recommend skipping over ASP and go straight for ASP.NET which gives you the full power of any .NET compliant programming language( usually VB.NET, C#, C++ or J#, etc ) instead of the wimpy by comparison VBScript. You can actually download a free development tool called the ASP.NET Web Matrix from http://www.asp.net. It actually comes with it's own web server, but unfortunately it only runs locally. You can run it on your computer just fine, but if you wanted to make your computer a web server, this wouldn't work. You would of course need MS IIS to do that. I wouldn't think that Apache has support for ASP.NET...and I don't think it would be in their best interests to.

Overmind, the MONO runtime (opensource .NET framework) comes with a nice free ASP.NET webserver called XSP. I've tested it out before, and it works pretty nicely. I'm not sure where I'd go to learn asp or asp.net (whichever route you prefer), but if you need a server, there ya go :)
