I have wondered the same as you and what I have decided to do was to make a fun project out of it by setting up my own home webserver. Go get Fedora Core 2 and get this book http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/078214 ... s&v=glance . Its a pretty good tutorial on how to set up a webserver using the LAMP technique which is short for (L)inux, (A)pache, (M)ySQL, (P)HP.
The book recommends getting Fedora Core 2 and all the examples are built for Fedora Core 2. I used Fedora Core 4 and have not had too many problems.
This should be a great start on learning Linux and if you run into any trouble you can come back here to ozzu.com for a quick correct answer (you guys are awesome
)
The book ends after you get your first PHP page going with is just the php info(). I realize that you just wanted to find out about how a linux server works but If you find yourself wanting to create webpages using PHP after you finish the first book then I would suggest getting this book by the same author http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/078214 ... s&v=glance
Im having a blast learning more and more about linux and how much fun it is.
