Simple server configuration q.

Cuchulain · 17 Sep 2010 at 09:50

Ok, probably not so simple, I have a bare Ubuntu server I want to host a couple of domains for myself and my family on so I need to get it configured to allow domain hosting from scratch, currently it only has Apache installed, anyone know of any guides on a simple method to get everything I need (name/mail server, PHP, MySQL and something like Webmin/ISPconfig) running in the right order?

Many thanks

The bit I'm confused about is assigning a a master domain to the IP and setting up nameservers based on that domain so I can point everyone elses domain to it and set up hosting for them.

I think I've got to the bottom of it, register domain -> setup ns DNS zones in BIND -> add ns glue records to registrar, profit?

ISP config was nothing but a ballache, FTP wouldn't work at all, ended up with Webmin and virtualmin, all working now
