I think those feature aren't related with Bitcoin node. Do you mean you want to run your own server which do many thing things at once (such as running full node, messaging service and file hosting)?

Bingo.

Well you'll have to install each of those separately then. There's no automation script that pulls all of these at once (I think Ansible is overkill when you're just installing them once).

You'll have to choose which file hosting software you want, then the messaging software, etc. and then use the package manager to get them.

Im not sure if this is the same as "running my own node" but to do both would be great.

I basically want to allow access to users to my server but also have the capability to sns them, send media, etc... Also. suspend their account/device.

Thanks for the reply and detail.  I haven't been on the actual hardware side of field in a very long time.

Any Dell or HP server tower will do, if you are unable to get those then an old desktop can be repurposed as a server running something like Ubuntu Server or CentOS. But since you are already planning to use a Pi for this you might be able to simply stick Raspbian on it.

Maybe someone can suggest whats the best route. I do know I want it to be linux based and written with Python preferably.  ?

Are you looking for an instant messaging server software?  Huh

Please be specific on what you want to install and set up on your server. This isn't clear enough because there are many software that can be configured in multi-user mode (e.g. media centers):

Good Evening from Tampa Florida.  Can someone set me up in the right direction on instructions, forum, etc on how to build my own server.  Im not sure if this is the same as "running my own node" but to do both would be great.  I basically want to allow access to users to my server but also have the capability to sns them, send media, etc... Also. suspend their account/device.  I know this is pretty standard stuff as far as server capabilites.  But where do I go to learn how.  Plz advise... P.S. I want to do this on a raspberry pi.  Thanks for your time
