I've run webmin on YDL using the MkLinux setting, and I've heard of
others using it on Linuxppc using the redhat settings without any
problems. I also use it on several RedHat/Intel installs at work with no
problems. I'ts really handy for those less familiar with Linux, that you
want to give some administrative ability, but I'd caution against webmin
in a real secure setting. Not sure about ANS, but there's one sure way
to find out ;-).
