New to Linux help

I have a Dell server with Novel SUSE enterprise server version 10 loaded.

I have started apache2 and seems to run ok but do not seem to have any other programs such as MySQL PHP etc.

Can I run XAMPP on my machine to install and configure all the rest of the apps on the machine so I can get my webserver working.

I know the security issue and will adress that when I have the programs all working.

Can anybody give me some help and advice I know this sort of question must be asked all the time but I am taking my first venture
away from windows and it is interesting but difficult so I thought the XAMPP package would kick start me and make things a little easier.

Any help would be appriciated.

Thanks for that and then I will be able to get the server up and running and deal with my dynamic IP problem.
But sorry I did say I was new to linux and I am reading books and websites as fast as possible to get me going,
