Have a look at this: http://www.turnkeylinux.org/lampstack The GUI admin is done via a web browser, as you wouldn't want a GUI on a server for a long list of reasons. It's also based on Ubuntu, and there are a lot more versions than just LAMP. I'd go for the LAPP version myself, as I prefer PostgreSQL to MySQL. -- JimP -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

I would recommend CentOS - it has an extremely simple web interface for configuration.

When you install the server (or use the alternate/minimal ISO) there is a step that asks you what tasks you want to install. "LAMP" is one of them. Alternatively if you already have an Ubuntu server installed you can just run:- sudo tasksel install lamp-server Al. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
