I have a software package I wrote in Mono and I want to be able to deploy it to Ubuntu server as part of my move to continuous integration and deployment work flow.

I was wondering if there is a tool to help me do that, some of the tasks I will need is

Register a new domain/hostname with linux
Install packaegs using apt-et
Copy files
Run some bash scripts

What are the solutions to streamline this process to automate, I understand that is more then one answer to this, I would love to hear all the methods pros and cons.

Thank you
