m23 vs webmin vs landscape vs whatever you can propose, I need software to mantain a bunch of debian
- by marc.riera
Hello,
I know there is landscape from canonical, but it has some $$ costs.
Als there is webmin, and it can be used as a cluster management tool.
Also there is m23, probably the most usable and interesting peace of manager software.
But, what would you suggest to install and use on following configuration:
1) 100 desktop users, against an AD with quest authentication services installed. (ubunt8.04,9.04,9.10,10.04)
2) 50 servers (debian sid, lenny , ubuntu 8.04 and 10.04)
We work on different software, so each group of persons need different configurations, each server has different pourposses, nothing is clusterized. And we have a good enough backup software.
So , my objectives are:
- easy install (deploy)
- good reporting
- easy logonscripts for users
- easy bootupscripts for servers
Thanks all for reading, and more thanks for your time.
Marc
