Have you ever wanted to set up a server to help automate things around your office. The usual way that it starts is with an internet search for some type of software that does what you want. The way that it ends, is with you buying the enterprise version of some software and paying maintenance for the rest of your life. Why not start your search with the site Turnkey Linux. This site offers over 45 free web appliances that come prepackaged in a Linux based ISO. You simply download the ISO, put it on a disk, and load it on a clean computer.
Linux can be very intimidating, but these builds are all packaged and ready to do exactly what they are designed for. The best way to load these servers is within virtual environments. VMware offers a free server version that works great to create a Linux server array. The Media Wiki build works great and is a good place to start with experimenting with this technology.
