Hi All...
Guys i want setup a host server for provide service hosting[Website....].
but i dont know how create a host server with centos 6.3.
and dont know What is needed.
However, i want setup on the virtual box for the training configuring and security...
however, how setup a hostserver?!
And if possible, Introduce educational resources.
Sorry for bad english speaking, because i'm a persian speaker, and dont know very well english language. however sorry firends...
well a web server is usually configured using apache, there are many thousands of useful apache documents available online for you to search for. I would strongly suggest you build your site using an existing hosting provider, as the server components require zero configuration and you can just start building your site easily. It's often cheaper to use a paid hosting service than to pay for electricity and other charges to run your own machine in your home, and you'll probably have a much much better system for it.
...but in the meantime, if you feel you need to practice (like you said: "training configuring and security") without exposing your web server to the Internet, then using Virtual Box is a good idea. Have a look at Howtoforge and the Centos Wiki for HOWTO's.
