OpenPanel – remote server administration and configuration system

OpenPanel is a completely modular open source control panel for Internet Service Providers.

OpenPanel offers all the basic hosting services for setting up domains, including DNS, email, websites and databases. A layered authentication system allows the administrator to create accounts with specified limitations for end-users. All of the system’s users are able to control system configuration using either an intuitive graphical interface or a powerful command line configuration shell.

OpenPanel officially supports Debian 5 “Lenny”, Debian 6 “Squeeze”, Ubuntu 10.04 and Ubuntu 10.10 distributions.
