Best thing to do is install the version of Linux that they will be testing on, install Apache (HTTPD) and configure it for a lot of things manually.

@scottalanmiller Any virtual machines free online today

[dafyre]

Start with something like CentOS, SuSE, or Ubuntu, and then install and configure Apache on them for hosting products like NextCloud, or Wordpress, or other web based applications.

Not that I know of. But they are free to download and run yourself.

Not likely nearly as useful to running the real thing.

• Like SAM said: Install and use it.
• Get used to the configuration system on Debian, CentOS and maybe SuSE.
• Understand logging
• Try the following mods: mod_auth_* mod_authn_* mod_cgi mod_php mod_proxy* mod_ssl. Here's a full list https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/de/mod/

Next, forget about Apache and use nginx

Get Debian / Ubuntu and do a

sudo apt-get install apache

Job done. OR get CentOS and do a

yum install httpd

[scottalanmiller]

Nothing compares with getting hands-on.

[thwr]

@scottalanmiller Yup

I like my scotch the way I like my webservers.

Poured over rocks and swirled...... wait, this is a terrible analogy.
