Hi everyone,
What are your thoughts on having a server product that competes with Windows
Server? Something which has a GUI, is very easy to manage and works best
with Ubuntu workstations.
It could have benefits over Windows, such as:
- Ability to store disk images on the server, then boot

Hey all, new member here. Using ubuntu on my desktop since Feisty after
Fedora crapped out due to a bad driver.
Anyway, to get straight to the chase...
One issue that's been a thorn in my side is dealing with file perms while
logging in on console.
Somewhat recently I uploaded a workaround

Such topics pop up every now and then on various Ubuntu mailinglists.

I agree that all networks should be managed by an experienced administrator,
but unfortunately a lot of them aren't. We can't change that. Many
businesses just want something that works and is easy to manage, even if
there are issues such as no backups. The target audience is the general
public,
I would like to second these thoughts. Also, even for super admin,
while managing a lot of boxes command line can get very dull and
depressive (I *know* how to do samba stuff in command line, but that's
not *why* I am using Linux). Lot of people aren't admins, and they
never will be, but they

That's mostly true, but in a GUI you have much easier access to
HowTos, the web in general, man pages and so on. Additionally, you

Yes, we need GUI - GTK and web based. That wouldn't be a problem. How
to manage all configs and keep ease of use from command line - that's
real challenge. Who will code this?
Web-based - check. Heard of webmin?
As example how I would like to see server management for Ubuntu in
gui,
I think that EduBuntu does most if not all of this.
I don't know. There has been an earthquake in Edubuntu land and I really
doubt that Edubuntu has anything special server administration wise.
I think that if we could build a drop in Domain Controller that also

Indeed - so instead of saying that administration should only be _possible_

I merely wanted to propose changing or adding to the scope of the team

isn't going to be any better, not to mention that just like marketing,
