[webmin-l] Feature Discussion

[John H. <web...@ew...>]

  In the 'prevent ourselves from being our own worst enemy department', 
I don't seem to be able to set up a limited admin user who can disable a 
virtuser without also having delete virtuser abilities, along with some 
other dangerous options. So, for instance, our 'Accounting' department 
has too much power IMO. I would like for them to be able to disable a 
site, which often times immediately leads to payment being made at which 
point Accounting should be able to enable the site. Perhaps a user than 
can look at about anything, maybe reset passwords, upgrade hosting 
plans, but have no 'delete' abilities.

And Jamie... I mentioned this before, but Usermin is over the heads of 
most of our actual 'Users'. I just read the article posted a few minutes 
ago and it alluded to the same thing. Yes, for someone a bit proficient 
with computers, they might be able to figure out what the stuff means, 
and yes, it is light years ahead of expecting a user to even know what 
'command line' is. There are a lot of great tools available in there, 
yet I absolutely know the danger factor more than offsets the usefulness 
for the majority of 'our' users. Maybe a DumbUserMin module? Just my 
general thinking here while trying to fill our client's needs, but maybe 
this is all just a pipe dream? And no, we don't want it to be a Windows 
Wizard (it's magic if it works) either.

I was wondering if any consideration of supporting Amavisd might be on 
the radar screen? I've been really impressed with the reduction in mail 
server loads running this as a front end.

And, so there's my ramblings for the moment.
