Hi Tom,
You do have a copy of debian-handbook? If not, apt install it.
Written by Raphael Hertzog and Roland Mas - my hardback is somewhere else -
it's a Debian-specific book built round the example of using Debian in
a factory but explaining lots of basics, how to set up a webserver and so on.
Always worth a look at, anyway.
