Webmin
Webmin is a web-based interface for Unix system administration. Using any browser that supports tables and forms (and Java for the File Manager module), you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and so on.
Webmin consists of a simple web server, and a number of CGI programs which directly update system files like /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/passwd. The web server and all CGI programs are written in Perl version 5, and use no non-standard Perl modules.

don't use the built-in server tools - use webmin. its more functional and everything is in one place.
the only thing i'd like to see is an answer for Workgroup Manager, that is, the user setup in webmin is too limited. everything else is great though.

Webmin is a friendly wrapper around the core configuration of a UNIX system, TP services and daemons. It's very extendible with modules available for many functions and applications.
VirtualMin is a fantastic example and brilliant for anyone who needs to run multiple hosts on a single box.
Webmin doesn't replace the need for understanding how a UNIX box works or is configured. If used by someone in this way, it can end in tears (I speak from experience).
It's also an excellent way of granting certain administrative privileges to people without also giving them access to the box.
If you don't understand UNIX, this may help you learn. If you don't care about understanding UNIX, I suggest you stay away from Webmin. It's too powerful for you.

My web host, Textdrive, uses Webmin and Usermin as administrative interfaces for users. Most relatively savy admin types have no problem using these tools. However, many average users signing up are very put off and confused by Webmin. Ideally, Webmin would combine a good interface (like cpanel) with its excellent functionality.
