I have set up a few srevers using Linux, but I have used specific Server setups. I use Mitels server distro. It is command line ish, but if you know what it is asking it os very easy to set up. Once you have your server running all the administration is done via a web application like Firefox etc. You can have a look at www.contribs.org I hope this helps. Paxo.
debain is best on servers i would really suggest debian because i am running 15 debian servers without any problem.If you want to setup your debian server follow this tutorial really nice one http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/debianserver.htm
Debian Sarge (3.1). Download this netinstall CD image (you need a fast internet connection to install Debian with this one): http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/3.1_r1/i386/iso-cd/debian-31r1a-i386-netinst.iso (this one if for 32-bit systems!)
