Well, having run servers under both WhiteBox and Debian (which is almost
Ubuntu), I find Debian frustrating :-)

My recommendation for anyone starting out with unfamiliar services like
this is to install Webmin. But *don't* use the versions in the Debian or
Ubuntu repositories (i.e. don't install with apt-get or whatever) - get
the package directly from www.webmin.com.

Vic.
