“This tutorial shows how to set up an Ubuntu Lucid Lynx
(Ubuntu 10.04) server that offers all services needed by ISPs and
hosters: Apache web server (SSL-capable), Postfix mail server with
SMTP-AUTH and TLS, BIND DNS server, Proftpd FTP server, MySQL
server, Courier POP3/IMAP, Quota, Firewall, etc. In the end you
should have a system that works reliably, and if you like you can
install the free webhosting control panel ISPConfig 2 (i.e.,
ISPConfig runs on it out of the box).

“I will use the following software:

* Web Server: Apache 2.2.14 with PHP 5.3.2, Python, Ruby, and
WebDAV
* Database Server: MySQL 5.1.41
* Mail Server: Postfix
* DNS Server: BIND9
* FTP Server: proftpd
* POP3/IMAP: I will use Maildir format and therefore install
Courier-POP3/Courier-IMAP.
* Webalizer for web site statistics

“Please note that this setup does not work for ISPConfig 3! It
is valid for ISPConfig 2 only!”
