Using Webmin for System Administration
-
a web-based system administration tool created by Jamie Cameron, a Mount
Waverley (VIC) based programmer. Webmin provides a consistent interface for
administration of the various parts of a *ix system. -
Webmin very nicely takes care of many of the low-level routine configuration

Listed below are 46 different freeware categories with my selection of the best products in each category. The list is ordered by program function rather than merit so you'll get the most out of it by browsing down this page at leisure. The pathologically impatient can consult the index below.

Cooperative Linux
Cooperative Linux is the first working free and open source method for optimally running Linux on Microsoft Windows natively. More generally, Cooperative Linux (short-named coLinux) is a port of the Linux kernel that allows it to run cooperatively alongside another operating system on a single machine. For instance, it allows one to freely run Linux on Windows 2000/XP, without using a commercial PC virtualization software such as VMware, in a way which is much more optimal than using any general purpose PC virtualization software.
