What's a good control panel?

Looking for one similar to cPanel.

File Manager
MySQL
PHPMyAdmin
Domains
Backups, etc

No need for any support or anything like that as it's just me that's using the server. I've had a look at webmin and openpanel, however, installing openpanel is far too difficult as there's a lot of messing around with repositories which I'm not at all familiar with.

I don't know of any other free panels apart from those two :(

Lxadmin or Webmin are good alternative. Please search before posting, there are already many threads here on this topic.

LxAdmin is insecure so I wouldn't consider that at all.

There arn't many free control panels which are easily to install. I would reccomend ISPconfig but you need to spend time installing it.

There are some decent guides on www.howtoforge.com (http://www.howtoforge.com) for it

Kloxo is your best choice, security are being patched, new dev team, similar interface.

Hello,

for some servers where I dont have installed CPanel, also using Kloxo (previously Lxadmin). On Linux platform I think he is best option after webmin and easy to install.

For Windows I use DotNetPanel which is also free.

Regards,

If you are looking to freeware then webmin is good option. But going to Cpanel you will get what you pay for.

For providing hosting : KLOXO ( best one, more higher security [ compared with the lxlabs one ] , more customizable ), ISP-CP ( an VHCS fork )

For self-management : VIRTUALADMIN, EHCP
