Generally, RHEL resources will apply equally well to CentOS. I'd recommend cPanel as a starting point for setting up and tweaking your server, as it will provide a very comprehensive and easy-to-use interface to do so!

Starting with CentOS 6
I just installed CentOS 6 on Win 7 / Virtual Box (centos.sonn.com/6.0/isos/i386/CentOS-6.0-i386-LiveCD.iso). I want to set up a server at home and learn how to do it etc. I am wondering about few things:
1) Do I have the right program (It has a GUI and I am not sure if it is the server "edition"; I followed the following video and person is talking about Server, so... (youtube.com/watch?v=FOkHJ2Q4vR4)
2) Does everything about Red Hat, like books, certification training materials, tutorials on the net etc, apply to CentOS as well, or is it better to stick just to CentOS materials
3) What is the general direction I need to go now (modify the system according to my needs, learn command line, istall a program like Webmin or cPanel, install MySQL and PHP etc; just looking for genereal ideas of how is it gonna look etc)
Thank you

You can use the terminal to try out a few command which will give you the feel of a server instead of a desktop.
