Server Set up help

Hey guys, this is going to be a loaded request, so I thank you for your help in advance.

Here is what I want to do, this is for necessity, as well as curiosity. I will need as much help in a step by step kind of way as possible, as I am new to this.

Set up: I have a unlimited Server license
A G4 iMac (the server)
3 macbooks
1 Macpro
3 iMacs
2 iPhones
3 Printers

What I want to be able to do:
1. Log into my user accounts from any computer (I mean home directory here, so open directory)

2. 3 user accounts, and one guest account. Only need one workgroup.

3. Each of the 3 notebooks to have a mobile home directory tied to one of the 3 home directories.

4. iChat Server

5. iCal server so that we can coordinate.

6. Web Server.

7. VPN. We dont have a static IP, but would love to be able to get into this from outside the estate.

8. Time Machine server. I have a 500 GB NAS

9. Possible Exchange support to use with the iphone

Thanks in advance, I know that this is alot, but I need all the help I can get

Yeah, I know sombody who had been able to emulate some sort of exchange on a tiger server awhile back.

 

Yeah, I was thinking about getting a lynda subscription for this purpose.

and possibly a static IP.

as for the Exchange, I was looking at it more so that I could get calendar appointments pushed to the phone, but I might try to create an iphone app that will sync with dotMac, just an idea.

thanks

Let Me partially change the nature of my question to get one main thing figured out.

How can I set up Networked Home Directories and Portable Home Directories

Thanks
