Anyone Ever used Webmin? - GoFuckYourself.com

Looks like a real 'get down and dirt' server management front end.

Has anyone ever used it and does it work

Webmin is good, I highly recomend trying it out.

I've used (and use) cpanel, plesk and webmin. I FAR prefer webmin. It's as easy to use with the right modules, more powerful and allows a LOT more flexibility. It does require a little more *nix knowledge compared to others but then if you don't have that you should be looking for a managed solution anyway.

It's tempting, I'll install it on my development box and have a play then.

Bet I'm going to have fun getting plesk off it first though.

I wouldnt trust any CP except Webmin. It is very stable, been using it for over 3 years without a problem.

webmin is cool, but you have to know what you are doing

fitzmulti · 09-25-2004, 06:05 AM

I have on my previous server. When I moved to a new one last year, I opted for Ensim on it. I like Ensim now, but Webmin was great and had a few more things that I miss, but aren't "mission critical" to me...

Odd - I'd have classed Ensim as a nasty piece of crap that invades a server and often makes security critical updates of software impossible.

Oh well, to each their own I suppose.
