Free control panel?


Hello all!

I'm new here and i'm looking for free control panel like H-Sphere, Cpanel, etc...

Anyone know one? (except web://cp)

Or, with individual licenses (i need for only 4 domains)...

I don't want to host on another server because i have my one.

Thanks all!

Your question doesn't clear whether you want control panel software for Linux/Unix or Windows platforms.

To my knowledge, web://cp is the only free one (and a cumbersome one to install, at that).

Ensim is one of the "cheaper" control panels but I would steer clear of it. "You get what you pay for" with this one.

Standard answer, Webmin, Usermin, Virtualmin. I like webmin seems to be updated very frequently.

Only problem with Webmin/Usermin is it's not very user friendly towards the n00bie.

yeah...VHCS looks more userfriendly and easy to use, like cPanel or H-Sphere.

Just a poll: do you think open-source CP (Like VHCS, webmin, etc) can break CP's like cPanel, H-Sphere and others?

Personally i can't answer the question. Company's like cPanel have been around a long time where as others haven't they just need time to catch up.

In my opinion the all free panels available for the Linux lags far behind the commercial ones.
So think about investing in them.

I don't know that webmin/usermin is the way to go. It's really geared towards administrators, not users. Usermin doesn't really give enough control or enough features which means you have to enable stuff in webmin for your users... this means they have 2 different places to login depending on what they want to do, plus with webmin it may give them a little too much control, depending on what you want to give them/they want to have.
