[SOLVED] Apache and ftp on Debian Lenny

[fguy64]

greetings, I am just getting started. I have Lenny up and running behind a wireless router on my hacker's home network , just a minimal install (bash shell) with ssh and Samba so far.

I'd like to set up a LAMP server (Apache, mySQL, php). The instructions seem clear enough. Debian's apt makes it easy.

My question is if I do something like apt-get install apache2 will that set me up with an ftp daemon also?

Thanks.



edit: ok after installing it seems that Apache doesn't include ftp by default. Anyways, since I was already using ssh and putty for remote access. I decided to use sftp for file transfers for the time being.

ok so are there still any questions?

No questions relevant to the original post. Apache does not include ftp as I ended up figuring out for myself. And sftp suits my file transfer needs for now.

Setting up a LAMP server using apt was pretty simple, though I haven't tried any fine tuning yet.

I have noticed that my Linux box seems to go to sleep on the network after periods of inactivity, thus making initial connections slow. I haven't done any research on that yet, probably I'll start a thread on if I don't find an answer on my own. Unless there is a quick and easy answer that you know about?
