O.k. I have Debian installed, My nvidia problem is sorted out so I now use X, and I can't seem to find Apache, Samba, or any other server. I did find my way to Package Manager but as near as I can tell, Apache is loaded and running. This doesn't help if I can't control the content. Because I have my DNS somewhere else, I put in one of my websites and I now know Apache is running. Thank you for listening to me ramble on......My question is this........Is there an easy way for a newbie like myself to configure virtual hosts so I can run many different web sites for the world to see? Mandrake and redhat had different utilities if I remember right. Take it easy on me, I'm new and trying all the distributions. I would like to see Debian take over one day!!! Please help the new guy. I am not good at the command line stuff either.

Sorry I wrote a book..

Yes, you can do virtual host. Apache is awesome because it is very rich in features. In your httpd.conf file, look for the directive concerning "Virtual Hosting". Follow their syntax but of course change the path and necessary url's to match your needs.

You can try installing webmin to make the changes to the apache config file. It will allow you to configure apache through a web interface. It simplifies things somewhat.
