Once again, let me say that your guide is excellent for us not-very-linux-leet users, thanks.
I just got a new server also with Plesk, so I "hit the road" once more and am in the process of upgrading.
About pt. 4, YUM update - I couldn't get it working at first. The www. addresses for the repos doesn't seem to exist anymore, so one has to remove those lines. That one I could manage myself.
After removing the lines, I still had problems however.
Error:
"Total download size: 17 M
Is this ok [y/N]: y
Downloading Packages:

I got help for this @ atomicrocketturtle forum, link:
http://atomicrocketturtle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=704
which explains that I needed to edit yum.conf line:
gpgcheck=0
instead of =1 to get it to install. That solved this detail, and yum updated perfectly. I've set it to 1 again after update; I'm none too sure what this param does, so I hope I'm doing the right thing.
About pt. 5, root password - well, I've limited acccess to the root account to only SSH2-access and changed the password; I'm afraid I didn't quite understand this with domains and access you write. I think you mean (write) that you give ssh-access to users from the domains? No, I'm not clear on this at all, sorry, probably my english isn't quite good enough. Very very few of my customers will need this anyway, and my 2 co-admins have root access too anyway - earlier we just made users on a need-to basis so I guess we'll go on with this.
About pt. 6, this is quite cool (yep I succeeded this time and now fully understands whats it all about lol) but in my FF the " (quotes) show as " around all the example commands in your guide. Could also be by design? Just to let you know. :-)
Thats it so far, atm I'm a little stuck due to phpmyadmin not working from plesk (seems to be a Firefox 1.5 problem) - but I'll get there eventually; please take the above as positive input and please keep up the good work!
And ofcourse a very happy new year to everyone reading this.
