 Dear list readers,
 
 I'm going away on a 2 month vacation in a couple of weeks and I need 
 to find a way I can do simple server administration from remote 
 locations. I will most likely not be able to connect via SSH to my 2 
 servers (Running FreeBSD 4.5 and 4.6 STABLE) since the only internet 
 access I will have is through various Internet Cafes.
 
 Does anyone know if there is a tool to do smaller jobs like 
 restarting services and stuff via a www interface?
 
 Thanks for your time!
 
 /Andreas

Or the putty ssh client, a single downloadable windows exe file which
requires no installation.

Thanks for your suggestions! Webmin is now installed and it does 
exactly what I was looking for!

Thanks again!

Heh, how about actually fully taking your vacation? ;-)
Getting real the putty seems most reasonable, but some of the Inet
cafe's can have quite restrictive outbound traffic policies.
