> I hate Webmin period. I like the scripted install though. Period? What period? Education period? :) I think that depends on the admin. Some like GUI tools, some don't. If I can do something faster with GUI, I'll do that with GUI. I think "command-liners" and "GUI lovers" are two opposite sides in the "the-best-admin-way" confrontation ;) > Hmm, I like that script also. But I have a slight problem.

Some time ago Python wasn't the language for shell scripting. Like PHP now. Perl was on the top those days. Now Perl is getting old. May be PHP will replace it? :) Especially if no Perl6 would be released. > I myself on server installs would use scripts like this in %post in > Kickstart.

I hope some good PHP admin helper script will be also installed in some repository by default one day :)
