im running a server from home but it was all me guessing how it was done! if someone does do this, ill give a hand!!! quick tips though: webmin. very handy. i used it on a remote server (remote being one beside me but no monitor!) and also SSH. i had all my log files shared over nfs, only to my workstation. this helped in checking logs. if this is running as a mail server, make sure its secure. i had it up for about 12 hours unsecure and bang! half million emails was being sent from my machine to others! Final tip, know your machine. if its a hardware problem, have some sort of backup. i have a remote backup server. BTW, im running some large sites on my server so its very important for me to have backups. Backup MX is handy too. Hmmm. any questions?
