Confused by step 5 (Replace the Domain name in the server_name line with your own domain name.)

Do I need to have purchased a domain to put a domain name here? Or can I enter uname -a into a terminal and simply enter my Ubuntu server name (without www and domain name extension - mine would be ubuntuserverdev)?

You don't need a real domain name when you want to access this site from your desktop only. use e.g. "mydomain.tld" as domain name and then set this domain in the hosts file on your desktop: http://www.faqforge.com/linux/controlpanels/ispconfig2/how-to-access-a-namebased-website-without-a-dns-record/

regarding user creation in the DBif you use GRANT command to create the user there is no flush privileges necessary! Only if you update the mysql.user table directly
