    webmin is more complicated and need a lot of manual setting. Kloxo easier for beginner.

    Neither! Save your RAM and learn to do everything by shell. It's not as hard as your think, especially since you use CentOS.

    I'll note that there have been several reports here of kloxo being severely insecure.

    I don't know if that is still the case, or if the developers have fixed those insecurity issues, but do know that there were several reports of security holes in the software.

    I'd suggest that you research it more in-depth before making a firm decision

    This is so unrealistic.

    - When you know the shell stuffs, you do need a control panel.
    - When you do have a control panel, you do need as well to know things on the shell.

    <<Snipped>> A control panel is NOT to replace your knowledge on the shell, it's to add some AUTOMATIONS.

    I would recommend webmin.com or virtualmin.com

    kloxo is outdated, insecure.

    And what are the differences between webmin and virtualmin?

    Virtualmin is a Webmin module for managing multiple virtual hosts through a single interface, like Plesk or Cpanel. It supports the creation and management of Apache virtual hosts, BIND DNS domains, MySQL databases, and mailboxes and aliases with Sendmail or Postfix. It makes use of the existing Webmin modules for these servers, and so should work with any existing system configuration, rather than needing it's own mail server, web server and so on.

    Talking Webmin

    Another Webmin advocate (but you have to increase your RAM to 512MB if you want an efficient environment). With 256MB you can run a control panel: LxAdmin (consumes only 15K of RAM) and you want not Webmin.

    yes I vote Webmin

    depends on what demand you are. if you looking for free or opensource, than go for webmin. else, cpanel integrated most of the needs, easier.

    Koloxo is easy to install,use and very lite on system,I am still using it.
    But I guess I will soon shift to WEBMIN or ISPCONFIG

    I agree, I'm also using kloxo and I like it because it's easy but I heard it's insecure

    I recommend kloxo if you are a beginner. Webmin is complicated

    webmin hands down, using it for a few years now and it always helps make things easy.
    Bonus points for the fact that it doesn't get in your way of doing things from the commandline.

    Webmin is a good panel but its not really made for many users. You can use it for many user though but It seems to be designed for personal websites in my opinion but virtumin is a webmin control panel that install mysql, php, httpd and all that good stuff for you in advance. If you are using centos you would have to install stuff like php-pear and stuff like that.
