Thanks Mylar,

I totally agree. I am a 16 year (now independent) UNIX/Linux admin.
I wish I could talk all customers into learning the basics. I use admin
interfaces only to show interested clients how to do simple things.
But this client does not want to learn the command line and does not 
want to pay consulting fees to do basic things like adding or removing 
a user, etc. :-(.  I guess he will pay me to recover when he breaks one 
of them . . . Right? ;)
