Nitin,
The downloads are on this page ..
http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/Stable
If you have a windows PC, try it out by downloading and running the Windows
installer - very easy install.
If you use a Linux PC, install the latest version of Java, and download the
'Binary (OS independent)' and unzip - also very easy.
Once you have it running (using startup.bat(?) or startup.sh - then browse
to http://localhost:8080.
Refer to the Geoserver User Guide is on the Geoserver web site.
Regards,
David
