Ive been using iPeng, which I still love, but this thread has prompted
me to install the Material skin,
Yes, that does the trick. Thanks! Although I can't help but feel it
would still be a nice addition to the server settings, it definitely
addresses my issues (the biggest being that I frequently edit the perl

I can restart it by sshing into my Linux NAS, but that requires me to
be on my computer and just generally feels like overkill. Is there some
way to do it from the web interface (other than installing a plugin?)
While I like that LMS offers to restart after installing/updating a
plugin, there are other times I want to restart as well. Is there some
way to restart on demand?
