Q: I have installed and running . RedHat9.0 very happy. Wuz wondering what kind of servers you run?
I currently :
-vsftpd (ftp server) 977 503-telnet
-samba (file sharing server) MythTV-977 503 (TiVo sorta thing, TV Record) 977 503 Web server (maybe) or I
what this (headless) server is used for ?
Best Answer: You do know that the majority of all internet servers are unix/linux systems! In fact Yahoo is not running windows and you use it just fine from your windows machine!
The best and most stable web servers are Unix/Linux based. You don't even need the GUI, once you get used to them. I have several web servers, not a one has the Graphical interface installed! A good server uses the minimal amount of overhead needed to work. Instal a LAMP (linux, apache, mysql, php) installation. Use ubuntu if you want a GUI interface, although once running touching the keyboard attached to the server is a rare event. Learn about real web servers and run a real environment. It won't cost you one cent for the OS or the installation and it can run on any OLD computer just fine! And C++ has little to do with which server, its just a programming language.
So get the book, "Teach Youself Php, MySql, and Apahce in 24 Hours" I think its from Sams.. read it, the cd will even let you setup the server! Believe it or not APACHE is APACHE even if its on a Windows OS (it just works better on Linux!)
Grow and become strong! Linux is the best server!
There are tons of things that will work on linux, it really isn't limited at all! Even a lot of free games!
Try it!

Re:I got a firewall router, it's a single floppy disk deal. (daschstien leaf firewall appliance). It has a mini http server for network monitoring, dhcp server, dns server, and does nat firewall for the rest of the network, therefore kinda a internet server for the rest of the network.
Other then that I have my main desktop, Slackware 9.0, I run a ftp server and a ssh server that I have the ports forward'd from the router. It is mostly for just personal convenience and a little bit for scripting/programming over the internet(intensely amaturish stuff mind you) when I get to a lull at work. Of course on that I got a X server/client dealy set up, but that's nothing special, it's just how X windows works.
I got a couple other junk computers I play around with, Got debian on 2 of them OpenBSD on a third, but right now they are in various states of unusability, just because I've been to busy to mess around with them lately.
At my part time job I have set up a old debian box to try my hand at integrating it into the windows domain their. Just mostly for testing, a proving ground so to say. It has samba, apache, ldap, ftp, webmin, nfs(currently disabled). Just to play around with mind you, it's a ancient 133 (still has the gigantic AT-style plug for the keyboard) with 48 megs dram (real screamer).

Re:I have sshd and samba.
Re:On my netbsd firewall/server – apache, mysql (locally only), postfix, ssh, bind. If I need ftp I uncomment it in inetd.conf and turn on inetd for the period of time I'm using it.
Also doing packet filtering and nat.
