Got done creating my first Drupal7 powered CMS site for the company intranet and hosting it on an Ubuntu VM. A few quirks and sys-ad sorta things and the site is fully operational within a span of less than a week with all bells n whistles such as admin notifications and rules and cron jobs and the jazz...
I started off developing a test site using MAMP on OSX and Drupal7.0 and then migrated it to the VM server running Lucid Lynx and LAMP + Webmin. MySQL was the DB of choice with a mix of PhpMyAdmin and sqladmin to do the DB craziness.
Configuration and a list of modules that worked:
Ubuntu Lucid Lynx + Drupal7.0 + LAMP (configured via webmin)
Had to use the Rules module instead of User Registration Notification Module which c^#%^$d out.
Had to use the SMTP Authentication Support Module cuz Sendmail/PostFix sucked.
Just content with the overall effort though!
