Webmin on Dapper\Edgy

[Jim Tarvid]

I am not sure what server audience Ubuntu is aimed at but it missed
mine by a bit. I have several staff people who find webmin helpful.

Also having problems with Ubuntu versions of the JDK, netbeans, jasper
intelligence, tomcat. The webapps I've tried don't plug into the
Ubuntu framework well.

The default Drupal install is not handy for multiple users. I find it
much easier to install in user space.

Virtual web/mail/mailing list support would help.
