[grizzled]

Was webmnin created to sell web hosting?,or what is it for?
Ive tried the one that comes preinstalled on centos and the file manager works well along with java,but when I installed it by myself at other time,really could not figure out how to use the file manager.
For its futures is claimed as best free control panel,tell me what you think?

Why not all solus vm panels come with the centos/webmin os future reinstall?

It's just a fairly simple panel, it can assist with hosting yes but I wouldn't say it's the best option for hosting, it's just a simple linux GUI with some handy add-ons.

But really for the price you can't go wrong.

And SolusVM templates are what you make them, distro's change too much to become inclusive.

Webmin is a simple and great Linux GUI to manage your Linux box (and can be used to manage your own websites for internal usage).
But if you want to sell web hosting to others, then you can use any hosting control panels in the market, such as: cPanel/WHM (along with WHMCS to manage clients' billing and support), or Plesk.

To sell Web Hosting, use cPanel/WHM its easier and everyone uses it.

This, the cost up front for this is so worth it if you plan on reselling web hosting.
