Control panel for Debian (was: Webmin themes)

 after installing webmin on my sarge server, I tried to download and
 install a few themes for it. Even though the webmin confirms a
 successful install into /usr/local/share/webmin, none of the newly
 installed themes appear in the selection drop down list. Please help.

I wouldn't worry about it too much since webmin has been deleted in
sid/etch.

But seriously, going forward, is anyone working on a control panel for
Debian? Like webmin, such a tool would gather together all of the
system administration tasks in a flexible, pluggable, way.

Webmin, however, still supports Debian.  The reason it is being removed 
from the
repository is because it moves so fast that it gets out of date very 
quickly. You can always still install it from upstream, without too 
much trouble.

Bill: Hey mom, Roberto said that you can just install webmin from
upstream so you can configure your printer.

Mom: That's nice dear. Thanks.

Mom: What's upstream?

in and do all your admin for you.

Mom: Oh, Bill, you're such a dear

Mom: Bill, what's port 22?

meh, worth a shot.

I just set up scripts on my Mom's computer (WinXP) and my Dad's (Mepis), 
so both of them can call when there's any problem to let me know 
there's a problem, then click the icon and they'll get a RealVNC 
connection so I can work on their system.  Even though they don't live 
far away, it saves a LOT of time.
