[cobalt-developers] Replacement GUI RAQ 550

[java <java@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've seen a lot of mails about replacing the software on a RAQ. I've 
upgraded the java and tomcat stuff in order to work with the latest 
spec's of JSP and Servlets. There are a few replacement GUI being 
mentioned here, but it seems they all lack support for Tomcat. One hand 
it's suprising now one is mentioning this here, on the other hand this 
doesn't suprise me since most stuff is written in PHP or Perl :-)

So I'm still on the look for a decent Web administration tool that 
supports tomcat, please don't mention ensim or plesk I don't no which 
one but their java support sucks big time. What I need is an 
administrationtool that basically does what ispman or directadmin, but 
also supports tomcat in a decent way that makes sence from a hosting 
point of view.  The ideal package should support many clients per tomcat 
instance, but also one client per tomcat instance or even one client per 
tomcat instance located on a different machine. For administrating 
webapplications you then can use the tomcat administration package for 
all the three possiblities and give the last two as well the manager 
package of tomcat, so they be able to fuckup their own tomcat. Of cource 
their will be issues like autorization stuff for tomcat that needs to be 
supported. Personally I think a client must have a choice if he just 
want some jsp/servlet support of having more control over his tomcat.

Problem is I can't find such a decent webbased administration. Sure I 
can dissable all tomcat features in one of the gui's and do it by hand, 
but I don't know if the gui overwrites the apache settings or adjust them.

So I'm wondering is someone out there using a multiple instance tomcat 
setup on a Cobalt Raq550 and so are you using a gui to configure this or 
doing this by hand.
