As someone totally new to the Linux world (but loving learning about it!), I've done a number of automated installs to setup various servers for my offices but have long wondered about doing an install and omitting all but the essential components before adding just what I want/need beyond that. Not having a boat-load of time for trial-and-error, can anyone suggest a resource that discusses such things (or provide a basic list of components that MUST be installed)?
My usage of Linux at this point is for ftp, syslog & tacacs+ servers (1 ea. at my 5 office locations across the country).
Thanks in advance for all suggestions!
