I will be setting up a linux webserver to host WordPress on. The problem is that although I know how to do it, I don't know how to properly do it. So I'm now looking for semi-advanced tutorials that are complete and secure above anything else.

I don't really mind trying a new distro, but I prefer ubuntu/debian.

I read this post: Any good resources for setting up a webserver in Linux ? But these are very limited. So far not a lot of luck finding good guides and howtos.

This should probably be a community wiki but I can't seem to transform it myself.

Thanks

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

One resource that I've used quite a bit is the Debian 5.0 Tutorial on Rackspace. It really helped me when I setup my first Debian webserver. I'm not sure if you are using a VPS or just simply using your own hardware, but most of the steps should be the same.

that looks like a really good resource, I'll take a closer look tomorrow – HannesFostie Mar 16 '11 at 15:33
