that should be a good reference point, and putty/ssh is all you need...
though webmin may make some configurations easier. many general linux/unix
books should walk you through the setup/admin/maintain of many services,
especially apache.  if you come across many problems, google it... you'll
probably find the answer in some mailing list archive perhaps.

good luck, peace
