This article on sitepoint(great
resource for web developers has a suggestion - "If you are unable or unwilling to
run your Web server under a Windows-based operating system, all is not lost. There
are several commercial options for adding ASP support to servers such as Apache (ChiliSoft ASP, for one); however, such set-ups
are far from ideal for learning ASP, since many components of Microsoft’s original
ASP framework rely heavily on features of Windows, those components will be altered
or missing entirely from platform-independent versions of ASP."
Good Luck
