I think it would be absolutely fabulous to have an Apple-built web interface to control primary server configurations. This would be similar to Webmin, but specifically for Mac OS X Panther Server. It would be much easier to edit attributes of the server if it was as easily accessible through the web, far better than through a cumbersome application. Just an idea, what do you think?

I'd rather have a way to distribute software via the Software Update for your server clients....

Remote Web admin is so 1990's. With VNC and Remote Desktop, it's not worth the extra effort.

I would just like to see some themes for Squirrel Mail...

You mean besides the ones that are built-in? There's quite a few of 'em already (and more are available if you do the right Google search, I'd bet).

Have you ever personally done that? Trust me, it's not as pretty as they make it look there. The other method I mentioned above allows the users to do it at their own time, since all ARD methods require a restart/log-out....
