Web hosting software - replacement for Ensim

Hi,

What exactly do you need the software to do, that standard Linux tools
can't do? I am sure that other TLUGers can suggest various separate
tools to get what you want done, if you tell us what you are trying to do.

For example, there are many great web servers available for Linux, Linux
already has excellent user management, and web-based configuration tools
exist to ease the task of having many users (usermin/webmin). Perhaps
you won't get the same integration, but that's why they charge money for
it (or is it free? their website is vague).

Also, why can't you run the software on other distros? Is it because
they don't provide the source code? I believe there are still ways of
making binary-only programs work on other distros. However, I would be
cautious of software developers who write software for a specific
distribution of Linux.
