I would like to know, what is the different between, the build-in CentOS server web server vs I install manual with yum install httpd

I am new in CentOS. I just installed my CentOS 5.8 Server with Web Server checked. With some Google Search with LAMP installation, they listed with yum install httpd

I had check inside

/etc/init.d/

already had httpd

I try to run yum install httpd http-devel

It shows not yet installed.

What will happen if I install yum version? What should I do? What is the best practise? Should I remove the Web Server install by default with CentOS?

My goal is install LAMP (PHP v5.2.17).
