Hello, Marcel. Yes, I considered subscribing to the RedHat list, but my experiences of that list in the past have been less than inspirational, and I know many of the more helpful people on SLE use multiple distros. If I were to ask the RedHat list what their closest equivalent to YaST is, there would probably be a deafening silence. I would love to use Webmin, as I already do on most of my own boxes, but as it is not on the client's machine, it would defeat the purpose. Also, AFAIK, Webmin doesn't do much in the way of package management. Thanks for playing, Stuart.

Ah, that's where the wonderful world of APT steps in (see Gary's reply): Webmin has a build-in frontend for apt-get :-) Marcel
