[HanoiLUG] Higher level server management Package, ebox, webmin... a

[David Tremblay]

Hi all,

Although I don't need much of those web interfaces (ssh + vi is fine for
me) there's still the need for high level management of a linux server
especially when you don't want the secretary to call you because you
need just another "email account"

So what is High level server management package / Software : Software
that integrate all the functionalities of your server (in case of a
linux one) into a more or less integrated interface : directory,
printing, file sharing, webserver, email, DNS, etc

So I'm evaluating high level solution for managing a linux services and
server so far I know :

- SME Server (http://www.smeserver.org/ red-hat based)
- webmin ( http://www.webmin.com/)
- ebox (www.ebox-platform.com) (works on debian)

I want to know if you know more of them and what are your experiences
especially when you want your "lambda" user to use it

VHCS or The Z panel can't be in this list because, although they could
do some of the job, their main purpose it to managing web hosting server.
