I got a question by email this weekend that reminded me that a lot of internet marketers don't know much about web servers. That's OK. You don't really need to know much. In case I am describing you, just know that a web server is the program on your host computer that serves web pages. There are two main flavors -- Apache and MicroSoft IIS.
Apache dominates the market -- althought IIS has a role, especially in enterprise deployments that interface heavily with .NET and Windows.
Apache is available for Unix/Linux and Windows. Sometimes, bad things happen and you need to restart Apache on your host. Now, this can be accomplished via CPanel. However, I prefer to do it at the command line. Here is the command:
/etc/init.d/httpd restart
