Hi Hari,

Please, use the 'Users' mailing list. This one is more development-oriented and has topics such as new features, bug fixes and other dev-oriented discussions. Yours is more about how to use the software.

You need server that sits in front of your shapefiles that OpenLayers can then query for it to return map images. This is called a Web Map Service [WMS]. There's plenty of OpenSource softwares that provides WMS support, such as [GeoServer], [MapServer], and more. Each has their own documentations, examples, tutorials and users mailing lists, so feel free to ask questions there.

HTH,

Alexandre
