Mail/ftp/web servers, on VIRTUAL!! dedicated server. Also resource usage. Centos 5.

Hi. First of all, would 4 or 5 websites, 1 ftp server (when downloading by someone or a few persons or one, concretize) and one mail server (not many emails, just to sound official and have a nice, spam-free email for myself). Websites with not that many, but some, later more visitors, quite high amount of images in some posts (a blog) eat much resources? Like CPU is ~1.8Ghz, maybe 1.6, Xeon, Rams are 1GB total. I'm not asking if it can run it, because i am using itfor other servers, i'm asking how much resources it would eat for each server?

Second of all, i could find guides for normal servers, dedicated ones, what about virtual dedicated servers? Please be sure what is a VDS though. So are there any tutorials for that? You cannot control a few things of this thing.

Also, can i use a few domains for those different websites and for the main computer, which wouldn't interract together? For example, you couldn't connect to the computer usign the domains, but you could connect trough the address given by your server provider, to be exat to a game server?

If you need a better explanation, please ask. Thank you for any answers to these questions.

Using Centos 5 and i would like to use the best software for those things available. I'm not very advanced linux user though, but i want the best software available anyway.

NAME
mount_ftp -- mount a FTP filesystem SYNOPSIS
mount_ftp [-i] [-o options] ftp://host[:port][/path] node DESCRIPTION
The mount_ftp command mounts a FTP-enabled server directory at ftp://host[:port][/path] at the mount point indicated by node. If the -i option is not used, all the required information to establish a login to the remote server must be available in the ftp URL, including username & password if needed. The user ID for all files and folders is set to the user's real user ID. The group ID for all files and directories is set to unknown, and the permissions default to read and execute for user, group and other. The options are: -i Interactive mode, you are prompted for the username and password if you did not supply one in the url. -o Options passed to mount(2) are specified with the -o option followed by a comma separated string of options. See the mount(8) man page for possible options and their meanings. The rdonly option will be set even if it was not specified because mount_ftp does not allow files to be opened with write access on servers. ftp://host[:port][/path] The FTP-enabled server directory to mount as a volume. If port is not specified, then port 21 is used. If path is not specified, then the path "/" is used. node Path to mount point. EXAMPLES
The following example illustrates how to mount the FTP-enabled server directory ftp.apple.com/ at the mount point /Volumes/mntpnt/ mount_ftp ftp://ftp.apple.com/ /Volumes/mntpnt/ SEE ALSO
