What kind of Mac? OSX comes with webserving built in. Check the help files to get going.

ASP is a Windows technology that is not available for Mac.

As Jimoblak said,

Apache is built into every release of OS X. ASP and .Net are microsoft-only technologies and are only available on IIS.

If you want to find a really good series of articles on using the web server built into OS X, check out O'Reilly's MacDevCenter at
