HTTP server and Web Server and Media Server



Hi all,

May I know the exact defination of a HTTP server, Web Server and Media server? I've set up a HTTP server before but what's the difference between the 3?
I have a customized HTTP server but I need to set up a Media Server on my system to server media to clients connected to my system. What should I do?
And does it require any special server or software to support real audio and video streaming?
Thanks.

Regards,
Zoqix
