My philosophy is to not to use a GUI configuration tool if it is not a part of the software package it is supposed to configure. I might evaluate a GUI tool if it is focussed on one software product, but not if it is a general purpose tool. This is because a tool distributed along with the software in question would be tested with the very same version of the software that I have in production. A third party tool might be developed on one version of the software, and you might be running another version. Therefore I use swat to configure samba, courier-webadmin to configure my courier MTA, even neat to configure netsaint, but will never touch linuxconf or webadmin.
