All the logs I need are in a list and easy to access without logging in with ssh. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jogegabsd" To: "Jorge Biquez" Cc: Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 1:59 PM Subject: RE: WEBMIN: Use it or Not? > I have nothing againts Webmin, and a lot of people use it, I think it > depends on you and the situation.
