When i read the ISPConfig tutorials it shows how to install the server itself step by step, but when reading the LAMP tutorials, it assumes you have a server installed and configured. How do I install a server so i can follow the LAMP tutorials?
Follow one of meany Perfect howto's for ISPConfig3 and install the base system, than continiue with the LAMP installation. You only take the server part from Perfect howtos, rest is your LAMP installation.
