hi gurus in linux, my brother told me about linux which i can use in my website as a server. I only have one server which setup in my house. Can anyone tell me how to have multiple server in my box? is that virtual server? just a newbie so hope you can help me in a simple way...
Hi michelle,
as u seems like an absolute newbie, a detailed description is beyond the scoup of this message. You should study a bit before moving ahead, some sites may help you like www.linuxhomenetworking.com etc.
..
Regarding Servers... A server is only a service in Linux (or in other OS). So, you can have multiple services at the same point.
Thank you!
i will now bookmark this url. someone told me a year before about freevps. do you know this? do you have experience using this? Anyone can help me.
chill!

Not really an answer, just to get this clear: are you sure you need complete virtual servers (of the V-server / FreeVPS kind) as opposed to "regular" Apache Vhosts? Maybe you could elaborate on what you're trying to do?
Hi unSpawn,
Yes, that's what i need.a complete virtual servers.
Can you help me?
Thank you for your time!

I like to try using virtual server coz i don't like to buy another machine. Am i right in choosing virtual server for this? I know you're very good in here and im not that's why im asking for help politely.I already follow the instruction there. done installing the freevps and kernel. create a /vserver/. Another question is...what's next? i stop here.

I keep asking you about this because in your original post (OP) you said you where looking into vserver because you would like to serve a website from this machine. For that you don't need a different machine nor a vserver setup: you can install all the necessary tools and run a website *right now*.

Next you create a "context" which is how they call a "virtual server". Since FreeVPS basically is Vserver you could read http://linux-vserver.org/Building_Guest_Systems and substitute the 'vserver' command for your 'vserver_ctl'. Note the doc mentions five ways to build a guest and I don't know if FreeVPS caters for it. Also note that Psoft recommends you install H-sphere to manage your FreeVPS (I think they got templates for building hosts as well).
