What did you expect to happen when you downloaded mapserver?  The website
contains a bunch of useful resources to help with your new adventure with
Mapserver.  Have you gone through the docs page?

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc.html

The Support section contains a link to the WIKI, which has lots of
information about installing and symbols and much more.

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl

If you have further questions, please email the list.. but try to be more
specific with what questions you have.

Good luck,
  daryl
