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
ftp - FTP client configuration file SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and are ignored. Behavior Directives The ftp file supports the following behavior directives: FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default. If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is specified in /etc/default/ftp. ATTRIBUTES
