Lester,
There really isn't. The HTTP Server that comes with z/OS is a "HTTP
Server". All the servers that I mentioned were "Application Servers".
Typical configurations would put the HTTP Server in front of the
Application Server... not that you have to but each server has it's
strengths and weaknesses.
The IBM HTTP Server (based on Apache HTTP Server) can also run on z/OS. I
am also aware of people running Apache HTTP Server. I mentioned the
others since the original post left room for interpretation.
As far as Jzos is concerned, it is just a really easy way to run any JAVA
class as a STC. The wrapper that Steve and Kirk came up with can be
written as evidenced by the only other z/Wiki advocate Harry Metske. But
Jzos works so well as to preclude the effort unless there is some
overriding technical explorative need.
If you install WebSphere Application Server (WAS 6.1) on z/OS, it comes
with an Apache HTTP server ported by IBM. The standard IBM HTTP Server
V5.3 that comes with z/OS is not Apache based, it is based on the old
CERN web server.
I don't think the Apache HTTP server for z/OS is available separately.
