Are unix hosting and Linux hosting the same?

Linux hosting and Unix hosting are not exactly the same thing. Linux hosting and Unix hosting refer to the software operating system employed by the servers of the host. The primary communication being made when a server is described as Unix or Linux is that it is not a Microsoft product. Unix comes in several proprietary versions, Sun Microsystems (now Oracle) and AT&T are two well known commercial versions of Unix. They own and control intellectual property associated with Unix. Linux is a nonproprietary version of Unix. There are many flavors of this. All are "open source." The intellectual property is controlled by one of the various open source models, GPL being the most well know. If a person says they have a Unix server, they may or may not mean the proprietary version of Unix. For many people, unix is a generic reference and can mean Unix or Linux. If a person says they have a Linux server, then it is a Linux operating system. It may be one of over a hundred different types of Linux, but it is based on an open source version of Unix. Note that it is possible to co-mingle the proprietary and nonproprietary versions of Unix, but this is not typically a matter of concern unless you are an expert or unless you are using Apple's version of "open source" Linux. Apple's version works pretty much like open source Linux, mostly, sometimes.

How do you setup local domain what we can do first?

For this purpose you need a server OS, for instance, windows server 2000, windows server 2003, windows server 2008 and so on or Linux based systems as well as Unix. For windows it's very simple just add role for your server to be a domain controller and follow instructions.
