'a server' ?   what, a web server?  a file server?  a email server? a 
name server?

each of those requires different packages, best installed via yum, while 
being quite selective, if for no other reason, then to reduce the amount 
of unneeded updates being installed every few weeks.

 A web server with ftp, ssh php and mysql.

Thought I'd give 7.0 a try before I upgrade from 6.8.

I know you can use yum to install groups but I don't know what the groups
are.

I had to delete the VM because it only left about 15% free space on my root
partition.

Thanks
