There's been some comments that people like your shorter videos; I just want to add, that I enjoy both short-form & long-form content, but prefer the long-form for a myriad of reasons. It really depends on what the topic and subject-matter is within the video(s) themselves. Some things you simply cannot squeeze or condense-down to 15 minutes. Sometimes not even 30 minutes - those longer videos allow for substantially more in-depth reviews, tutorials, features, and information.
You've been an incredibly intricate & priceless resource for me throughout my Linux journey sincere 2015.
To name a few: XCP-ng, pfsense, FreeNAS/TrueNAS Core, TrueCommand, Pop!_OS, KDE/Plasma, Network monitoring | Management | Administration, tmux, and the opensource apps & tools you use to run your business. Without your videos on all of those topics, I wouldn't be nearly as advanced as I currently am with my own IT Business & my Consulting career with what I've been able to accomplish, especially in a short amount of time. You're a truly amazing resource Tom! Your videos are great for newbs & experienced/accomplished tecnology professionals alike.
Long comment I know, but I wanted to express my sincere appreciation & gratitude for the content you product & provide to the Linux & Technology community. And you do all of this FREE on TH-cam, the information on your website, and your Forum! *No paywall! No teaser videos where viewers need to buy some coarse to get the full information. No shady tactics!*
Again, thanks for everything you do Tom! _I REALLY appreciate it._
Cheers

Zentyal is another web interface you may want to have a look at, has been around for a while.
@@AndrewLatham Zentyal is an open source email and groupware solution based on Ubuntu Linux with a web interface, not an ad on interface.
You are killing it lately. I can't keep up with my list of "things that Tom talked about that I want to play with"
0:10 Tom, you are the only daredevil among the Linux, Unix experts and Content Creators, who believe to have a GUI on linux for practical reasons.
*Take a bow*
Appreciate. Respect you more than ever.
Damn, you really have some awesome content thanks for sharing the knowledge. Keep up the great work 👍
It not only makes it easier to use, I think it also makes it easier to learn. I learned from command line, but starting from scratch, it can be really hard to grasp and understand linux. Using a web ui, it will give you a visual understanding of how things work, and what the content of the operating system is. Its like navigating a kitchen in the dark. If you first turn the light on, and learn where stuff is located, it will be easier to navigate in the dark.
LOL Tom, you had me there for a minute. Reading the title I thought you were gonna surprise us with the entirely novel concept of running web browsers on Linux. 😂
April fools is already over. 🙂
Cockpit is my favorite. Simple and easy to use.
Thanks for the video. It's been a while since I last used Webmin and now I want to try it again!
For one man shops these utilities are a lifesaver when configured and secured properly.
I'm not sure I see the connection. What advantage do these tools offer to the one-man shop? They add overhead, security concerns, and unnecessary points of entry. This is okay with a team of people to monitor and secure it. It's the exact opposite of what you are trying to do as a one man shop. When working alone you want to avoid these types of situations because they require more than one set of eyes to implement safely.
Yeah I mean "when configured and secured properly" but most security breaches are people not doing exactly that.
@@GeorgeSukFuk Yes. And a great many are people who believe they are.
Yeah I love cockpit; very clean
Webmin has come a long way! I haven’t used it in years.
yes it has
I don't use it at work but at home it's really handy for managing DNS and DHCP.
@@JeremyMarkel DNS gives me such a headache
Webmin sure got a lot prettier than when I last used it.
yes it has.
@@LAWRENCESYSTEMS sir, how do i configure MPLS between two pfSense Firewall and establish VPN between them?
Cockpit can be the front end for Ovirt and it works quite well.
Being able to see the running services is a great help as I'm learning / setting up automated tasks on a server. Being able to quickly check those services after I close out a terminal session thinking I forgot to turn something back on etc is so damn helpful.
i didnt know this existed, this is perfect. thank you
Cockpit is a way to go. But very simple thing like group management is absent in cockpit. User management is also quite basic. Ssh key management - absent. Samba plugins are quite broken including plugins from 45 drives. Please suggest / correct me if I am wrong. Appreciate your reading.
I may use Cockpit, although I just want something easy to setup just for monitoring all my servers
super video ...plz explain virtualmin installation on webmin .. thanks in advance .
Hi Tom, a great introduction to these useful tools. Thanks
It's a good introduction if people weren't aware that you could have administrative web interface without the overhead of installing a desktop environment for a graphical view of systems.
I'd have liked you to show a glance at Cockpit's Dashboard feature and how it can manage more than one sever from there, as then you only need the web component running on one of a group of servers.
As long as the first server can reach Cockpit on other server(s) by SSH this means they don't even have to be co-located.
I've used it in this way for a few servers at different sites and was pleased to see it work even across different versions of Ubuntu LTS Server, given that it is a Red-Hat sponsored project.
The services, storage, and log sections are certainly more approachable than the command line, and also for those who don't yet have any centralised monitoring/logging (e.g. Zabbix).
Also I think Cockpit uses APIs or libraries to perform functions, for example the virtual machines section uses libvirt, and for system software updates it uses PackageKit, so I would not describe that as merely running some command line functions behind the scenes.
But I appreciate it was meant to be a quick look.
Howdy Tom
Howdy!
You sould zoom next time,for easier watching,font is tiny
I like it much better when you do 10-15 min videos! Thanks and keep up the good work
Safest way to use webmin on a public server, create VPN, then accept port 10000 on tun0 network. :)
Will these work with Synology NASs
Do not use Vesta. It is abandoned and has some serious security issues. Use HestiaCP, the fork. It is quite good and should be seriously considered.
Then there are some paid options, such as Plesk, cPanel and DirectAdmin. However, cPanel works only on CentOS and while it is commonly used as a web hosting panel, i wouldn’t recommend it for casual use.
Also there is an ISPconfig, another free Web UI for server management. In my opinion not as good as Hestia but still an adequate alternative.
Good video! It would be cool with an open source alternative to Synology DSM. With File/Audio/Photo Station web interfaces, Drive sync and so on.
@asdrubale bisanzio NextCloud seems to have developed nicely since I tried it about three years ago. It looks like it covers all the bases. I will check it out! Thanks! 👍👍
Thanks for the great videos. I have only recently started to use Linux for various things and these videos help a lot thanks!
I use webmin for my ISC DHCP server.
you 're so right!!!!
Use both makes life easier when doing repetive tasks. You on the mark sometimes you may not remember an exact command and guessing is not a good thing. Cockpit and Webmin helps those coming from the Windows world transition making my phone ring less. Cockpit has come a long way in a short time would like to see it grow to include automation.
For those who talk sh*t about Linux web interfaces, I assume they look into FreeNAS and say “I don’t need that, I’ll reinvent the wheel over the weekend”
@asdrubale bisanzio sounds like old school admins: "why to click 4 times when I can input these 15 commands on terminal?"
That webmin interface looks completely different from the fresh install the one I'm looking at, it looks like something from 1995.
Im setting up a server which will be used by my brother and me. While i am eager to learn everything about managing servers, my brother doesn't care about this stuff. So im very interested in setting up an web interaface for him.
Webmin is awesome. I just wish they sorted out LDAP.
You could change the title to "Best Web Interfaces For Linux Servers"
Hey Tom!
Hey!
been using webmin since late 90's
I've used both but none have RSync, which was a huge deal breaker. I wanted to use either in LXC under Proxmox. So I just went with OpenMediaVault on a VM.
People who don't want to use an interface obviously only have like 2 clients lol. ISP config is the best
I suddenly remembered two interns in our office duking it out whether linux should be used with a gui or not hahahaha
i don't really see the point in making everything harder for myself by doing everything via cli. Yeah let me just remember 50 different cli arguments instead of checking 5 boxes in a web interface.
Hi Lawrence. What distribution of Linux do you use?
POP_OS
Is there a graphical desktop interface kind of like Synology. I currently have a arch server for torrents with a vpn installed on esxi and my current problem is arch doesn't have the vmware drivers. I could try a different distro but it would make managing vm much better than using a web interface over esxi console or vmware.
Which feature are you missing exactly? Most of VMware drivers are already included with the kernel. Open-VM-Tools is also the open source implementation of VMware Tools. I'm currently only using KVM/Qemu so I might be wrong since I don't use VMware products that often.
@@JoeyDiamondCool Well the option to shut down from esxi gui KDE doesn't like to display with higher resolutions with certain setting enabled I can't remember the setting but after reboot it defaults back to that setting. I just think it would be cool to have a desktop like interface via a web gui.
I think a web UI is very amazing! I use terminal ALOT but I do use on occasion web UI for basic statics, logs, and other things.
webmin's been working sweet for me for a long time. some things i'll do by cmd line by preference, but overall it's useful for monitoring and doing more complicated things with some type of GUI. call it up in a browser, do your thing... done.
Webmin is great, as Lawrence said they should not be publicly accesible.
Personally i been using Webmin/Virtualmin since 2017 to host my websites at home and it has been rock solid.
And lets not forget the best thing about these, they are FREE so cant complain.
❤️ Cockpit
Can i use cockpit to create a new zpool
I think yes…
config dns with bind with webmin make my head like tornado... headache
Be a man and configure DNS via the BIND zone files with Vim.
Its hard for many users to "remember" commands
How I setup my Linux servers in my homelab...
1. Install Webmin
2. ????
3. Profit
What is the username and password for cockpit? Thanks mate!
Your systems username and password
2?
I'm not salty, I just use SaltStack 😋
As long as you keep SaltStack patched you won't be salty :)
@@LAWRENCESYSTEMS true, regular OS updates does that automatically 😀
To all of you Linux experts. Cox forced me to upgrade my modem to docsis 3.1 to get the higher speeds. After installing 2 different modems, Arris and Netgear, I could never get Linux Mint to connect to the internet. All 3 Win 10 computers connected, but neither of my Linux computer's would connect. Rebooting, and restarting everything didn't help. I've searched the web, and found no help.
can cockpit manage multiple servers (locally) , in a single interface ?
Yes, take a look at the cockpit-dashboard component
What Linux should not have a web interface? I strongly disagree with this. Linux should have a web interface where it shows nothing but a terminal
If you are serious about Linux or Security, don’t use any of them (unless you do know network security etc etc).
Ahh Webmin, butcherer of configuration files. Hopefully they know how to read configs now, instead of outright overwriting the existing configuration.
Personally I hate web interfaces, they are useful in administrative environment but not good for learning linux.
