I do B for customers all the time. Once it's set up, webmin is so easy
even MCSE's can maintain it -- all point and click. Actually it's about
10 times easier than Windoze once it's running.
Personally, I put sendmail, BIND 9, Apache, FTP (w/ root in the domain
web tree so they can ftp their files in). Brain dead simple.
Go for B.
