vi /etc/postfix/main.cf

# forward mail for root to you
vi /etc/aliases
newaliases

# activate new IP and hostname
service networking restart

# install latest security/stability updates
aptitude update
aptitude full-upgrade

# generate host keys
ssh-keygen -q -N  -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -t rsa
ssh-keygen -q -N  -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -t dsa

# taa--daah!
