I am in a pretty similar boat.

I need to get a ubuntu file server running and I have never done so before.
I downloaded the server addition iso and istalled it on a box with no problems. Booted it up and logged in.

Than I just stared at michael@image: $

I have never used command line. The only comand line I know is XP's start > run > cmd > ipconfig /all to bring up the ip information....

I sat there for thirty minutes deperatly trying to make somehting work. I couldn't even get the machine to reboot....

I must say I felt belittled by it....

But now I have found the forum and have already made quite a bit of progress. I think by weeks end I will be much better off.

But know your not the only one with just a few beans....
Best of luck to you.
Michael

Ubuntu Server is a wonderful OS and is easy to use. I'm not sure that either of you asked a question, so it's a bit difficult to answer. Did you get your issues worked out?

If you are familiar with working at the command line level, you can completely configure your server and customize it to your liking. If you are not familiar with working at command line, you might want to read the recent issue of Full Circle Magazine (Issue 10), starting on page 13. They talk about installing the Xubuntu desktop so that you have a desktop manager, and then installing Webmin, which is a gui tool that allows you to manage your server. I have not used it, but it looks interesting.

Also, there is often times good information on the HowToForge website. Here is a guide to setting up your server based on Gutsy Gibbon:
