Well, let's see if I can reply to any of this.

First of all, not EVERY web server can understand Java Servlets and yes
servlets can replace traditional CGI scripts.  Apache web server can
understand servlets ( actually a whole slew of web servers can with the JDK
and the Servlet API which basically means JSDK 2.0 installed as well )  With
a little configuring the most popular web servers can run servlets ( I.e.
Apache, IIS 2.0, IIS 3.0, etc)  There are 3rd party web servers that run
servlets as well.  The best place to learn would be at the sun site. I
believe its www.java.sun.com and they have tutorials, JDK's, the JSDK's, etc
you can download.
