Serge has pointed out what should probably be a 5th requirement. * Easy to use
No point in having a GUI that is difficult to use. Windows is full of examples of such GUIs and gave GUIs a bad name. Additionally, if the tool makes it possible to manage a set of machines at the expense of managing 1 machine easily then it has failed the ease of use test. > Yes. But haveing some enterprise management tool installed, to > manage just a bunch of servers might also be if not rificulous, a > little overkill. > > Lots of businesses are small companies who need to only manage a > small number of servers. Small companies on low budget where one has > to put up stuff in a short time frame, as one server won't serve a > workgroup 200 users, but maybe 15. > > A per server management tool is what often is needed there. > > > Serge Here is the requirements list so far: 1) Optional - must not be required for Ubuntu Server 2) Secure - must not have known security issues, must have good known security architecture 3) Scalable - must be able to administer sets of machines 4) Open Source 5) Easy to use - for 1 or more machines Are there any packages that can meet such requirements? -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
