From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Do you use any web ui's for your Linux server? I'm comfortable managing my server using the command line, but I also want a graphical interface that shows an overview of what is running on the server, the way the resources are being used what containers are running and so on. Also file download uploads would be great to have.

What do you recommend which is light and resources and is suitable for less powerful servers with low ram?

So far these are the more interstating tools I've found: (they vary in functionality their provide)

Ummm Webmin? Can't believe it hasn't been mentioned....

Webmin is great. Especially when you would like shit to just work and not faf about wasting your weekend text editing configuration files

[–] Meuzzin@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Exactly. I've been using it for 6 years or so. I've tried every other supposed alternative and nothing has even close to the functionality of it...

If you don't mind the UI out of the 90s webmin probably is the most comprehensive solution. I haven't used it in a few years, does it handle containers?

[–] Meuzzin@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Yes! And the interface can be customized. You can even design and use your own... Basically, it can be tweaked to your hearts content.
