i don't use linuxconf, but i've seen all of above in debianized linuxconf,
dunno if it actually works and how..

problem is - cobalt can be fully customized, but how do you create such
tool for debian, when even someone using only packages can
use qmail,exim,sendmail, etc etc etc etc as his MTA,
apache, roxen, etc etc etc as his httpd, ..
so it boils down to creating more modules for linuxconf,
or - creating apache-webconfig, exim-webconfig, qmail-webconfig
and the like apps.
Which actually isn't bad idead afterall, anyone willing to start or help
with starting such project?
or maybe there are such tools which i don't know about?
