Q. I mean, how do I know the website I purchased is already under my name, account? What about the domain, hosting, website - what information does the previous owner have to give me as proof that I am the new owner of the website? Do I need to sign anything, of fill up any form? Please help...
A. If it is a turnkey site, then all the seller should do is to push the account into your name / login at a domain registrar such as Godaddy, this will be done by arrangement. Once the domain name is in your account, you should be able to see it in your registrar account. You should also be able to see your details on the whois records (e.g. http://www.allwhois.com). If hosting is done with the same registrar, then there is nothing to it, as the domain and hosting will be pushed to your login. If the hosting is on a separate account, the seller should give you all the necessary files or install it for you. There should be some details on the type of hosting the turnkey site is running on, such as Windows or Apache/Linux.
What do you think about Valve entering the console market with their steam box?
Q.
A. Here is what I got
-----------------------
Gabe Newell confirms the company is working on hardware to compete with next generation consoles.
Valve is known for keeping their cards close to the vest, but every once and awhile, founder Gabe Newell opens up a bit. The legendary CEO was on hand at Friday nightâs VGA awards, and confirmed during an interview with Kotaku that a Steam Box would go head to head with the next generation of consoles.
Valve seems to have been empowered by consumer interest in âbig picture modeâ, and is actively researching new and interesting ways to make PCs work better in the living room. The fact that Steam now runs on Linux could also help keep costs down. The prospect of a Steam Box in the living room brings to mind endless possibilities, but Newell was careful to manage our expectations when it comes to added functionality.
"Well certainly our hardware will be a very controlled environment," he said. "If you want more flexibility, you can always buy a more general purpose PC. For people who want a more turnkey solution, that's what some people are really gonna want for their living room. The nice thing about a PC is a lot of different people can try out different solutions, and customers can find the ones that work best for them."
A locked down Steam Box running Linux probably wouldnât be all that useful, however, Newell made it clear that third party OEMâs were welcome to join the party as well.

What is the best and easiest-to-manage Linux OS / POP / SMTP server for a novice Linux administrator?
Q. I am a novice Linux server admin (I can us SSH, vi, cron, and understand config files), but I am willing to learn. However, I do not have hundreds of hours to research and learn all the ins-and-outs of Linux. I need something fairly turnkey:
What is the best server software that will do all or most of the following:
- POP3 server
- SMTP server
- Webmail server (with good standard features, like WYSIWYG editor, attachments, etc.)
- Web-based end-user configuration tools
- Anti-virus
- Anti-spam (blacklists and whitelists & RBL support required, spam filtering logic a plus)
- Authentication data stored in a database for easy management.
- POP-before-SMTP authentication
Similarly, I need to pick the best Linux OS to run this puppy on. I would like an OS with a wizard install, and one with adequate security for a publicly accessible server.
Last of all, it would be great if all of the above would be freely available for commercial use.
Thanks for your help!

A. There is a fantastic tutorial on qmail at the links below. qmail is very secure and is widely used. Many developers have ported it to the application extensions you want to use, like WebMail, anti-virus and anti-spam.
This should at least get you started.
Good luck.
