Re: Virtual host package, command line, I need help

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Sorry if I seem a bit dumb in this question, but are these virtual
servers going to be used in a production environment or are they test
servers? Also, in my experience, using a GUI on a server is not really
necessary, as everything can be done from the command line. Yes it may
be easier to do it with a GUI, but if you know what you are doing and
what to do it professionally, stick to using the  command line and
give the idea of using a desktop the flick.
