Tutorial teaches how to install and setup a Fedora Core 4 Linux system.

Quote:This is a detailed description about the steps to be taken to setup a Fedora Core 4 based server that offers all services needed by ISPs and hosters (web server (SSL-capable), mail server (with SMTP-AUTH and TLS!), DNS server, FTP server, MySQL server, POP3/IMAP, Quota, Firewall, etc.). In addition to that I will show how to use Debian's package manager apt on an rpm-based system because it takes care of package dependencies automagically which can save a lot of trouble.

I will use the following software:

Â Â * Web Server: Apache 2.0.x
Â Â * Mail Server: Postfix (easier to configure than sendmail; has a shorter history of security holes than sendmail)
Â Â * DNS Server: BIND9
Â Â * FTP Server: proftpd
Â Â * POP3/IMAP servers
Â Â * Webalizer for web site statistics

That's nice. Got any Fedora Core 2 through SSH setups up your sleeve?

I'd go with core 4 over core 2. We're using 64-bit core 4 on 3 servers and regular core 4 on 2 other servers..and SuSe on 1 server.

Can't afford it! Smileyyellowbang

We just got a GoDaddy VDS. Comes with FC2.

It should be installed already then. The Fedora FAQ has links to all the documentation you'll need:

and there's more documentation here:

Core 2 is already installed, but I'm too cheap to buy Diger a control Panel.

Edit to add: I have to sleep on the couch now, and she isn't even here!

Webmin is a free control panel http://community.tuliptools.com/index.ph...124.0.html

Thanks Jez! I saw your ealier post about Webmin and BBH's comments about some other control panel boinking with his configuration. That was actually part of "MY" decision to hold off on a control panel.

***sigh*** Maybe Diger's right again.
