What about ISPConfig. I can vouch for webmin, but ISP config comes highly recommended by a lot of people. You also have Cpannel but I am not sure if that has an OpenBSD port...or ISPConfig for that matter but you didn't mention it so though I would...

I have used webmin for a while to allow simple changes to be made to our wireless gateway by others in the team who do not normally deal with it (e.g. during holiday periods etc. (I have not used the BIND module, so cannot comment on that). In its favour - a) simple install, just run the setup script b) very easy updates of core system and modules c) Custom Command module is VERY useful for setting up CLI commands needed by staff who can never remember them (to be honest that includes me sometimes!). Can also be safer than allowing them control of e.g. BIND through the BIND module, from where they could do a lot of damage Not in its favour - a) it is a GUI Make sure you use SSL - requires p5-Net-SSLeay Al -- Dr Alastair F.
