Help setting up a apache/mysql/ftp server

hi guys,

I'm going to set up a server under Arch with apache, mysql and ftp. And preverably an SMTP server too. I'm going to use the server to host a website for my red cross department.

Te problem is that I'm a bit of a newbie to arch (and linux in general). Is there anywhe that I could get a walktrhough for this? Or is there anyone who could "talk me through it"?

yours,

Bernhard

The Wiki is a good place to start:
"LAMP" (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP)
mail server guides

If you can't find it on this forum, check Gentoo's forum: they have many well documented guides on any topic. They also have an extended Wiki. Then there's HowToForge and Librenix and of course good old Google.

Re: Help setting up a apache/mysql/ftp server

okay. I've got apache and mysql running (and phpMyAdmin). Now I need to set up a ftp server. People who do not have a local account need to get access to the ftp server too. All files that are uploaded should be saved in /home/httpd/html (and then in the folder of the user, witch is represented my his/her username example: /home/httpd/html/user1 is the ftpdirectory of user1).

I've read many wiki's and documentations about installing en configuring ftp servers but I just can't get it working. Is there anyone who can walk me trough this, from the point of install on?

yours,

Bernhard
