here's not a bad box to see configs :
github.com/Varying-Vagrant-Vagrants/VVV

why? because if you're serious about server administration you dont want to do that shit every time by hand :D
Most people don't have any use for those tools. They're good for devops but at the scale most webmasters are at, there is no need for that level of automation. If someone has a single vps or dedicated, vagrant and ansible aren't appropriate, especially for a newbie.
