Starting Fresh

Over the course of the last week as I've been moving all of my sites (along with a couple family member sites) over to my server, I've noticed that I really screwed up when it came to configuring this server.  No amount of hackery was giving me the options that I needed so I decided to reformat, install the new CentOS, and follow a pretty good guide on setting up a webserver.  It went pretty smoothly, and took around 6 hours! haha... Anyway, I changed a few things and now I finally plan on documenting everything that I do on this server so that I don't forget anything.  Luckily I had remembered to back up the network drivers, but I did forget how to make postfix forward all mails through sendmail.  Perhaps I'll document that first.
