Setting up a virtual private server is becoming a critical task for IT personnel.  Nanotux.com wrote a really great article on how to set up a Ubuntu/Lighttpd/PHP/MySQL server and how to also keep it running.

Setup your server or VPS, I won’t go into how hardware or how to install Ubuntu in this guide. If you have a VPS, you can select a Linux distribution in the control panel most of the times, and it will be installed for you automatically.

Great tutorial to read just to get a general understanding of how the whole process works!
