    Is it free?
    I'm using centos 6.2, I think it's not compatible.

    Hi,

    Yes Kloxo is free. CentOS 6.x is not currently supported.

    Hi,

    Sorry i dont have kloxo installed at the moment. I have worked on it twice and its good. I guess you can buy a temporary vps and test the free control panels listed below and select one of your choice:

    Ps. Free Linux Control Panels
    1. Webmin
    2. Kloxo
    3. VHCS
    4. ISPCONFIG
    5. OpenPanel
    6. SysCP
    7. GNUPanel
    8. EHCP
    9. Web-CP

    :cool:

    You probably won't, DirectAdmin is a commercial application designed for webhosts. Webmin is your best bet, it allows you to control your system with the help of the control panel, rather than control your system for you, as in the case with DirectAdmin.

    It looks promising, but I can't give you my opinion because I have never actually used it.

    What features are you looking for?

    I would say Webmin has all of that. But of course, it mostly depends on your securing the server. Webmin has been around the longest and is tried and tested

    With Webmin or securing a server? Regardless the best way to learn is to practice, so I would get a test VPS and play around with it, there are tons of information online.

    Yes, it's that, but IMHO Webmin isn't so much user friendly.
