Webmin is an excellent tool, I've always found it complements the GUI,
there's no reason to dump one in favour of the other, both have their
obvious strengths. Leave adding sites, users and DNS to the GUI, that will
avoid clashes - but there's other useful tools webmin has like the file
manager, tools for viewing email boxes and log files, installing perl
modules from CPAN, etc, that still make it worth using - notwithstanding the
standard disclaimer that stuff like this may void the warranty. Just because
webmin makes some things easier, I don't necessarily think it's a tool for
the faint hearted - if you're not sure what you're doing with it, you may
drop yourself in a big hole.
