1. Once installed, Apache, well is Apache! So the best source for information is http://apache.org for version 2.0 of apache with Windows http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/platform/windows.html for earlier releases http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/windows.html and for easy installation http://www.wampserver.com/en/ You can find easy setup packages for Windows OS you are using which makes the initial setup quick and painless. Maintenance with Apache is very easy doesn't require much. The Config is all handled in the httpd.conf file and that is well documented. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/en/configuring.html I have apache running on my laptop and does just fine for development work. I will say that the BEST combination is on a LINUX server. LAMP *Linux, Apache, MySql, and PHP is probably the best and most used server on the internet today. Apache works under windows but the weakness there well, is Windows! (All my production machines are Linux based and just simply work day after day with very little admin or maintenance needed! - Auto updates keep them current and an occasional kernel update is all that is needed.) If you want a full LINUX / APACHE combination just download and run Ubuntu (use the server install) and your DONE! Very solid running system. (just a free word of good advice.) But all you ever will need to find with apache is on the apache website. Great Web server so USE IT! and have fun
