Under which directory should we put all the web pages of our web page?

If you use Apache as the web server in RHEL5 (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5), under which directory should we put all the web pages of our web site into?

You should put them wherever makes the most sense to you, and then configure Apache to look there for them. If you do 'locate httpd.conf', it will tell you where the Apache configuration file is.

Where makes the most sense to you depends upon how you use the machine and how you plan to maintain the web page. Generally, you create a user to own the files and then point the web server at a directory inside that user's home directory.

The default is probably '/var/www/html'. Check the 'httpd.conf' file for a 'DocumentRoot' line. But I would advise changing the default rather than putting your web page there.
