This is “the CD”, which I needed as a “Server CD”. However, I named it Webserver Edition, because I have customized it around LAMP. (Linux, Apache, PHP, MySQL). This CD should prove to be an excellent choice for setting up Physical and Vitual Machines, quickly. The usefulness of this CD is multi-fold. You can use it to install the OS, as well as use it as a rescue environment too.
The latest edition is available at : http://downloads.wbitt.com/downloads/CentOS-5.5-i386-WebserverEdition-0.2.iso
Below are the key features of this CD:
- YUM, wget, FTP client
- vi editor (vim-minimal)
- DHCP client
- SSH Server and SSH client
- SELinux
- IP Tables
- nmap, tcpdump, wireshark, iptraf, traceroute, etc.
- Apache Web Server (with SSL)
- MySQL DB Server
- PHP
- VSFTP Server
- Postfix Mail Server
- xferstats, webalizer, spamassassin, squirrelmail
- sysklogd
Your valuable comments are welcome. Let me know if you find it useful.

Is there any chance that i create an ISO image of my current running server(CentOS)and all configurations and can install it on the other Server without any data loss ????
You can ask this question in the forums. Hopefully someone will come up with a solution over there. I am sure that many (on the internet), who would have been in need of a similar solutions. A little googling will help.
In my (limited) knowledge, there is no such magical solution.
