How to reinstall Lion OS X Server

Hi, I bought Apple Mac Mini with Lion OS X Server a month ago wanting to host my websites. This is my first Mac and I looked around for guides to host multiple domain name on my server. I followed the guides below:

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3205108?start=0&tstart=0

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4838

Amending the config in apache, now that when I type say www.domain1.com and www.domain2.com on safari, it shows default page.

The problem arises when I apply 3rd part webhosting on www.domain2.com, I have point www.domain2.com to the 3rd party server, but on my Mac safari, it is still showing default page! I believe I have screwed up the apache! I almost wanting to give up and sell the mac mini on ebay.

Is there anyone that knows how to reinstall Lion OS X Server, by reinstall i mean format all the details leaving a fresh copy on the mac mini server.

I have tried to reinstall lion os x but it is not a fresh copy!!

Hi,

To be able to create a Raid set-up with Lion Server on a MacMini 2011 you need to procedd that way, Apple's way... You need a couple of hours

Or the Sys Admin way

Very clever from Apple to remove those DVD/USB media for all Macs shipping with Lion ..;-(

Lion Server = Nobody's server

Thanks Apple.
