do i need to make "myserver" a "domain name server"? if yes, what for?
- The machine that you've installed Ubuntu on, most probably has hostname. If you want to use another name, just do "hostname new-host-name". This can also be configured in apache's httpd.conf with "#ServerName www.example.com:80"
You can always use the IP address of the machine too. Installing gnome-desktop is not a security risk, but may slow down the server, depending on the type of work you're doing, but less possible.
