Control Panel Suggestion

hey guys,
i just got a new dedicated server.
but im not the best at command line. im ok but im finding it hard.
and i really like my GUI!
basicly i want a control panel that i can use to administer my server. things like databases and FTP accounts. i could use phpmyadmin but have yet to find a solution for FTP.
i tried webmin. its good but couldnt work out how to add FTP users.
i also tried plesk but dont like it. and Cpanel is good but bloated and costs.
it has to be free.
thanks

Have you tried virtualmin on webmin? That will create the site, ftp user etc. the same way you do on cPanel. (ie. just by providing domain and username)

I will recommend you cPanel. Almost everyone use it, and you can manage your FTP, SQL and Emails.
It is not free, it cost about $15/month

WHM/ cPanel VPS license is $14 to $15
WHM/ cPanel for Dedicated Server is $45 to $50
The OP talk about Dedicated Server.
Anyway cPanel is the best.

I recommend you to try ISPmanager (ispsystem.com). It is a new and easy-to-use control panel. You can manage your FTP and databases without any problems.

Go with Cpanel ;-)

cPanel / Plesk / DirectAdmin

You posted on webhostingtalk.com.au as well :-P
Give plesk a second chance, I find it does everything I need. Although I still have to use command lines for something
