I really like this thread, so here's my 2 cents:
I use the CLI almost exclusively. Which works for me, the mail
administrator for our domains. But I want to train a monkey (office)
manager, secretary, etc. to do the simply stuff our customers call in
for, look up passwords, add an account. And like all of you probably
know a cli might as well be in russian, as it makes no sense to the rest
of humanity. I really like qcontrol, we purchased it and use it. but I
have to tell the monkeys, "never click in there, you can mess it all up"
for the tcp.smtp, and spam settings. what would be nice if there was a
Qcontrol-lite. or user manager, or some way to simply present the stuff
I trust people to do with a GUI, and let them have at. Qcontrol is far
superior to the other tools mentioned, and I'd personally like to see it
as a replacement for the other broken tools. some Featueres that would
rock:
click a user name and search the logs for that account. so if a user
calls in I can click his name the server will show me all the logs with
his/her user name it.
ability to tail a log /var/log/qmail/smtp/current, or other.
Thanks for all the hard work
Thanks for the suggestions for QControl. User suggestions are how I make
new features. I'll jot these down and see if I can't get them into the
next release.
As far as your "lite" version, you can modify it yourself if you want.
The web portion is all written in PHP/HTML and not encoded, so you can
modify it all you want. You, for your situation, would edit the
/usr/share/toaster/qcontrol/menu.html file and remove the entries for
the items you don't want everyone else to see.
You may also be running an older version of QControl if you're asking
about 'tail'ing a log file. The current version allows you to view the
log files, and shows the last 50 lines by default. You can change that
and view the last 10 lines if you want as well. You can even make 10 the
default when you open it by editing the
/usr/share/toaster/qcontrol/includes.inc file and changing the value
from 50 to 10.
Enjoy!
