i digit on ssh /etc/init.d/mysql start and i see this error

I just ordered a server which has that setup:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Dual Core
8MB RAM
2x750GB RAID 1 HD
Now I wanna run it with DirectAdmin, but obviously DirectAdmin doesn´t support the Debian 64 which is installed but only 32 bit Debian.
Now I wonder wether I could setup a Debian 32 as well on that system and if yes, wether it would give me a deficit in Performance?
Or would you rather go with CentOS 64 which Directadmin supports?
I want to backup a entire folder thats in / not in any other folders.
I've tried this command but I get the error described below..
tar cvpzf opensim.tgz
tar: Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive
Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information.
The folder is called opensim. I was logged into SSH with root access and tried the command directly, not going into other folders because well I dont want to, I wanna backup that 1st opensim folder that I can see on the FTP also.
I'm having some trouble finding a VPS host that offers Debian and Plesk. I've searched the forum but nothing's really panned out. I'm currently with Geekstorage but the server has been slow (same problem reported by others).
Anyone have recommendations for Debian + Plesk VPS host?

Install Required software
NX server needs ssh and some libraries to run. These packages are normally not installed during the basic installation process.Use the following comamnd to install
#aptitude libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 ssh
Install Free NX Server in Debian Etch
First you need to download the .deb packages using the follwoing commands
i did the three steps..
Now you need to install .deb packages in the following order this is very important
#dpkg -i nxclient_2.1.0-17_i386.deb
#dpkg -i nxnode_2.1.0-22_i386.deb
#dpkg -i nxserver_2.1.0-22_i386.deb
If you get any errors use the following comamnd to fix
#apt-get -f install
Now you need to make sure ssh and nx servers are running if not start with the following commands
#/etc/init.d/ssh start
#/etc/init.d/nxserver start
--------------------
but the problem is i cannot connect to the nx .

I have just installed my vps with webmin on debian 5 and I need a guide to how to configure my system to use suphp, Ive googled it but not come back with any clear guide.
I better add Ive plunged in at the deepend and after the secuity breach at Vaserv, I can not take the easy option and install lxadmin any longer.
Which OS is better in security and easy to use for vps beginner:
CentOS™, Debian™, Ubuntu™, Fedora™, or Gentoo™.?
I'm leaning towards centos but am concerned that development priority in that distro will switch over from Xen to KVM as RHEL does. Which distro would you choose for dom0 and why?

My requirement are :
- Apache
- PHP (mod, not cgi)
Actually, users can navigate into my server by using phpshell script. And someone put lots of file into /tmp directory so I tri to secure all of that but don't find good tuto for that; do you know where can i have some?
And what about php using cron so execute with php-cli how to secure it?

I've just ordered a dedicated server with Ubuntu server, but they've come back to me to say that they've had trouble installing Ubuntu server on these particular servers.
As an alternative, they're offering to install Debian. My concern is that I come from a windows background and have spent the last month reading and playing with Ubuntu Server in vmware. I'll be running a small handful of sites on the server and will rely on the apt-get and package installer in webmin to get things set up and for administration. I'll dabble in the shell a little, but only when needed.
Should I go with a different host that can offer Ubuntu, or will I be okay with Debian?

Linux user trying to install a few packages on a new dedicated Debian server.
Following some tutorials, I installed Apache1.3 & PHP4 using apt-get install and had them up and running no problem.
I then decided to change the versions, so removed them using apt-get remove and deleted the relevant folders from /etc (this was before I knew of the apt-get --purge option).
I then tried to install Apache2 and PHP5, and although it appears to have worked, folders are not created for them in /etc so it doesn't work.
Is there a way of doing a fresh clean install so that the folders are created? I've tried apt-get clean without success.
Alternatively, a way to rollback Debian to it's previous state before I got my grubby little hands on it!

This should be a routine walk in the park job for me but for some reason this time the phpmyadmin installation on debian is giving me so much trouble. I have installed it numerous times with no issues.
I am trying phpmyadmin installation the usual way, "apt-get install phpmyadmin" but no matter what I do I keep getting "500 Internal Server Error".
My mysql server has a root password.
I know debian well and they wont put a package up which has not been tested well so I am surprised phpmyadmin is not working properly on the basic installation.
I have been trying to make it work for 3 days now and as a last resort I am coming here to see if someone can shed some light on the issue.

So I created two virtualhost files site1 and site2.

ServerName www.mydomain.com
ServerAlias mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/premier

Site 2 config file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin mymail@admin.com
ServerName lemonsite.mydomain.com
ServerAlias /lemonsite
DocumentRoot /var/www/lemonsite/
[...]
Obviously I a2ensite both sites and reload Apache2.
When I digit lemonsite.mydomain.com on address bar of firefox, it returns Address not found.
When I digit MYIP/lemonsite, I get a 404 not found error generated by www.mydomain.com CMS.
When I digit MYIP on bar I get www.mydomain.com.
