Control Panel

[Chris Kenward]

Jason

Could you explain what you mean by "top posting"? I'm fairly new to this
list although I have been lurking for some time.

Something I have noticed while I've been lurking is that there are several
people in here who appear to be terse to the point of being rude - surely
not something originally envisaged when the list was put together? If this
list is for experts only then please let the moderator tell me that - and
I'll leave it with pleasure. If not, then please keep your brusque attitude
to yourself.

At this point I'm asking for views on the various control panels for Redhat
- more than just for this particular customer - also for my own learning
curve. I have long been interested in setting this sort of thing up and it's
good to hear from the various HELPFUL people which packages I could
consider.

If you don't like what you consider to be dumb questions then just delete
the posts - but don't tell me what I should be posting in here. If people
feel I'm asking them to hypotheisize I'm sure they will simply ignore me.

Thank you for being helpful..... NOT.

Regards
Chris

You need to talk with your customer to define their requirements.  
There are alternatives if you know exactly what they need.  I suspect they
want something like a CMS and perhaps something to administer mail accounts.
Until then, you're asking folks on this list to hypothesize.

P.S.  Please stop top-posting.

Thanks,
