Hi guys!

I am looking for a good program to make remote administration of Linux,FreeBSD or NT servers easier. Can you give me some advice? I heard that Plesk should be good (http://www.plesk.com/home.php), not for NT though. Please give me some comments! Thank you!

Yep, plesk is good in some things...controlling accounts, DNS etc.
But...it's strict with permissions and security things.
Don't expect u can install ucj or rb2 on server which uses plesk....

Plesk will fuck your server so bad.

Plesk, Satans tool.

Plesk cost me a bundle. Its set-up is fucked. And figuring the permissions is brain surgery.

Yes, I will have a new server on a 100Mbit line and it's actually going to be a nice one with Scsi Raid 5, Several Gigs of Ram, Multiple Processors etc...but I am not planning to host movies there, "public servers" are better for that, I think you understand =)
