Agreed. Eximon's a simple solution if you do your administration locally on
a UNIX workstation. If you're not on UNIX, you'll need a Windows X server or
VNC. If you're remote, even over a typical broadband connection, you will be
working at a fraction of the speed of a web interface.

BTW, it takes about 15 minutes to install and run a web server and an app
server on RedHat or Suse. Most people who try the web interface realize that the
better interface is well worth the effort. You've probably spent more than
15 minutes reading this mailing list today. (That effort estimate does
not apply to *BSD, which, depending on the versions you want, and the
*BSD version, can take a very long time, whether you use "ports" or not).
