Thank you. I'd forgotten all about webmin. I tried using it a while ago and gave up for some reason. Probably because I discovered YaST :) I'll give the current version a spin and see whether it's like what I was suggesting. OT, the first YaST-like tool I used was SMIT and the advantages/disadvantages were much the same. When the magic worked, it was wonderful. When it didn't, it was much harder to figure out what had gone wrong than if you'd done it with command-line tools. IBM were trying to replace hundreds of command line tools with a single interface. But the reality was lots of bugs in the hundreds of little scripts that implemented the single interface. Oh, well.
