I have a serve in my house in which i host my site on. I would like to host some friends site but i have a question.

How do i make a web sign up so that it would make:

1)virtualhost
2)email account
3)ftp account
4) mysql account

I know people have their programers to make a program to do this but is there any free software or anything like that i can download or test out?

Im running linux.

short manual:

1) virtualhost - setup Apache and then "man apache"
2) email account - setup sendmail + cyrus and then "man sendmail" and "man cyrus"
3) ftp account - setup ProFTPD and then "man proftpd.conf"
4) mysql account - setup MySQL and then "man mysqladmin"
:D
