So I want to buy an old server (ebay has lots going cheaply), install Linux/Apache and host my own sites instead of paying someone else to host for me.
I've already got two books on actual use of the server, one on installing Linux and Apache and one on configuring the server for using PHP and mySql for running database web sites. I'm looking for practical guides on wiring, installing, connecting more than one server, etc.
Is there some books which I can read to give me advice on actual hook up/internet protocols?
Forget the why's and wherefore's which will inevitably follow such a plan from the more experienced members, just stick to the details.
