Josh, When I built my new web/email/dns server hosted at linode I went with Virtualmin on CentOS and have been very very happy with it so far. I ended up having to go with a little more RAM than I originally expected on my linode due to performance issues but all in all it has been a good experience. --Adam Josh Trutwin <josh at trutwins.homeip.net> wrote .. > I'm looking to setup a generic CentOS box for a buddy of mine who > wants to do hosting on a server via CoLo, I homebrewed up a CP of my > own on a Debian box running a basterdized qmail/tinydns and custom > build httpd/mysql/etc. It worked well but time to move on and I > don't have time to maintain all those packages.
