Another new Linux User :)

[John Van Horn <jvanhorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just subscribed to the Klug message group, A little info about me...

  My name is John Van Horn, I'm located in Manistee, I'm a PC/network
technition for Jackpine Business Centers of Ludington and Manistee. We
are an ISP with dial in services in Reed City, Baldwin, Manistee,
Ludington, and other locations.

  I started looking at Linux about 4 months ago to possibly use as an on
premise machine for a subscriber web page server, Proxy server or mail
server. I purchase RH Linux and have it and apache up and running on an
old P54 /100 Mhz with 32 Megs of ram and  about 3 Gigs of HD.

 Boy... Where do I start with the questions :)

 I have been RTM (Reading the manual) but don't seem to see any straight
foreward answers on:

    Setting up web page space for a user?   This seems to be half a
process handled by Linux and half handled by Apache. I probably don't
understand the nomenclature well enough to realize I'm looking at the
answers. Am I warm looking at the "Virtual host" section of "hppd.conf"?

   Why can't I remotely Telnet in and log in as Root, without using "SU
root". (So I can do "stuff" from home.)

  Someone  point me to a good, simple text editor included with RH
Linux...

  Well... guess that's it for now.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!
