And to add yet another comment: I've been trying out various library software over the past few months, and I highly recommend experimenting using VMWare images. Not only are they easy to set up, but if you make mistakes beyond the point of no return, all you have to do is delete the image and start over. It's a lot easier than having to rebuild a system from the beginning. I wouldn't necessarily recommend a VMWare image for a production system, but for scratch monkeys, they can't be beat.
