Basically.. I am breaking things down from another article which I used to set up virtual domains and accounts that accept incoming email..

1. First off get a fresh version of freebsd (using 8.2-STABLE).

#cvsup -h server.freebsd.org /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile

This will make sure your freebsd kernel and libs is up to date. This also caches the updates for existing software that will been to be installed.

2. Let yourself not stress out for 5-7 mintes! Scoot!!

The big debate at this point, is to commit to drupal when wordpress is like insanely easy to deal with. Also need to get a decent theme going on here instead of this funky Hot Topic crap.
