Try Roxen instead of Apache. Apache is ok, but Roxen lets you run an
FTP Server, it's alot easier to configure, and it's RXML makes running a
site alot easier. Check out http://www.roxen.com. Look in the manual
for more info on RXML.

http://www.ml.org. You will have a URL ending with .dyn.ml.org. For
updating software, I would reccomend using
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Lakes/1355/dynipup.html. It is
what I use. It has instuctions on getting it to work at that site.
