This tutorial is about preparing a “very secure hosting” environment using bunch of proven open-source and free products (CentOS, OpenVZ, Lighttpd, PHP, MySQL, Power DNS). I used these techniques for configuring my first dedicated server (Celeron-2.8 ghz, 512MB, 80GB).

Step 1: Prepare a very minimal CentOS system.

Covered in greater details here

Step 2: Update the system for OpenVZ support

Please consult this excellent documentation at openvz.org for details.

Step 3: Install VZ containers (preferably one for each set of applications to keep them secure).
