I have an existing NT network, with a web/email/dns server running on NT. I need to replace that machine with a Linux box, and I am a complete newbie to Linux. I have RedHat 7.1 and SuSE 7.1 and I have tried both briefly. I need some information on a basic configuration to do http, ftp, mail & dns services. What modules in the install are necessary to achieve this functionality? Any guides or information sites about setting up a similar configuration would be appreciated, or any good books on the subject I could get. There are several good articles on this site about setting up the apache server, but I am unsure what modules I should install. Thanks for any help!

You could first try the online guides at your distros website.

http://oreilly.linux.com/
http://www.linuxdoc.org
http://www.sendmail.org

That should be enough to get you started.
