vps website hosting question
For a vps I was looking at the eight core, to run a website preferably linux, what do I install to get all those programs such as the one used for webhosting, php, redhat shell access etc..?
Re: vps website hosting question
I'd suggest getting cPanel Trial, then upgrade it to full license.
Installing cPanel will install Apache/PHP/MySQL/phpMyAdmin
That should be enough to get you going.
Here is a guide to install cPanel:
http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/A ... tionGuide/
I'd suggest strongly going with CentOS5 for OS.
Good luck and let us know how things work out.

Re: vps website hosting question
I need these in paticular
Do those get installed as well? Haven you used Webmin does it do the same installs as cpanel.
Code: Select all
ionCube loader
FastCGI
GD2
Server Side Includes
CURL
Re: vps website hosting question
I am not familiar with Webmin.
I mainly run WHM/CPanel on my VPS.
I also run GD/FastCGI.
I believe fastcgi/gd/SSI/CURL is already part of the cPanel install.
as far as ionCube loader i'll leave that to NFo to answer.

Re: vps website hosting question
ionCube is easy to install separately if you need to -- it's just a .so file and minor php.ini change.
I haven't experimented with either cpanel or webmin, but webmin is where I'd turn first, since it's free.

Free is always better.
But generally speaking cPanel has a huge user support base, I think the product is well developed, the support is outstanding.
Like John said, give the Webmin a try, if things don't work out well go for WHM/cPanel.
