I've thought about creating a server for myself, but I don't know how. I've heard of things called apache and so forth, but I don't know how to use such things.
I know how linux works but I wouldn't know which distro to use.
Plus, if I were to partition my hard drive I would have to obtain a complete backup of my HDD as it is now. That would take some time. Unless I use partitionmagic I think it's called.
What is the the best distro to use?
What the the most secure server with the least programming (i'm a noob to servers and linux..)
