So, since webmin is obviously _not_ the developers/maintainers choice,
what is/are the alternative(s) ?
One alternative that I tried was ISPConfig (under Breezxy). ISPConfig
is a nightmare with Ubuntu, and is as difficult to remove as Norton on
Doze (and doesn't handle qmail/vpopmail, among other things).
So, what do the developers/maintainers suggest?
