tasksel

If you forgot to select some software at the "Software Selection" screen on a fresh install, what are the commands to install them after the fact. I know you can install them manually at anytime after everything is said and done, but what are the commands to install just as if you [*]starred them on that screen.

For instance:

sudo apt-get install lamp-server^

will install the LAMP Server. What are the commands for the DNS Server, Mail Server and Tomcat Java server?
