Whats the easiest way if any to manage multiple servers via one web interface?

do you have the raq's or the new linux boxes?

Neither right now,im starting out and since many have suggested the Cobalt Raq since im beginner i was going to wait until they received more and go with them.

Wich would be easier work with multiple servers? Im probably going with the Raq when it becomes available so i need a solution for that right now.

Any idea's?

Your question is predicated on a false assumption: That "easiest" is well-defined. That which is easy to one person is not going to be easy to the next; personally I find ksh scripts to be the "easiest" way of doing many things, but I'm sure most people wouldn't.

Try things out, and decide what works best for *you*.

If you're just starting out just get a re-seller account with a good host. I wouldn't start off with a dedicated server right away :)

Im not really interested in a reseller account if i can keep from it. Half of them are selling me there "discount rate" at rate that only allows me to make almost no profit after subtracting transfer fee's etc. while they make most of the money.

And the fact that im very limited with a reseller account. Regardless if im starting out or not when i move up im going to have to eventually learn about the servers so i would rather do it now and save the headache.

Since you are just starting out, why would you like to ask this question? There's still a long way to go before you have to get the 2nd server and start on multi-server management.

But I think most people manage them separately, not on one web-interface. Correct me if I am wrong.

Because im not interested in getting a server that will not meet my needs for the long term.

I would like to know which server benefits me all around and for the long term. I dont wish to get a server that fits my needs now that i will just ditch in a few months. I would like(if at all possible) to find a server that fits my needs now, but that i can grow with as well, that isnt limited.

Also im looking for a way to use multiple servers with ease, and i was just asuming that the solution to this would have something to do with the OS and Servers i would be running.

So if there is a simple solution with Ensim for multiple servers, but not with the cobalt then i would rather go with the 1ghz AMD because it would suit me in the long run. So i was wondering if there was such a way to manage the servers through one UI and if so is there any particular difference between the solutions based on the OS and Server and if so which is the easiest to implement.

So if anyone has any idea of a way i could do this and to which type of servers this would be easiest with please let me know.

Thank you...
