I presume you're talking about hosting multiple sites and such, rather than "a webserver". I've recently deployed SysCP (http://www.syscp.de/) to a client, and so far I've found it to be quite nice. Looks decent (although there are a few little grammatical problems due to the main authors being German), provides all the basic functionality you might need (multiple domains including aliases, mail domains, full quotas on everything) and doesn't require diving into the base system much-if-at-all. Installs natively on top of Debian Sarge, but I've installed it quite easily on Ubuntu Hoary. I agree with Jeff's sentiment overall, though -- use what you're familiar with already unless you're keen on making this a learning experience. - Matt -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
