I've had to set up IIS and SiteServer on WindowsNT boxes, and Apache
servers on Linux boxes.
For ease of setup, configuration and management, Apache wins my vote each
time.

I don't know specifically about Linux-based web servers, but for statistics
on web servers in general, see: http://www.netcraft.co.uk/Survey/
Apache (the web server usually used on Linux) has more than half the
market and is growing. Microsoft's IIS has slightly over one fifth
of the market and is shrinking. Of course the figures for Apache
include other platforms on which it runs - notably NetBSD.
