web hosting woes

It’s all coming back to me in a blinding flash of hatred. I’m recalling exactly why I hated running a small webhosting company in the first place. There are no GOOD tools that allow a user to configure web, mail, dns, and other services easily and securely. At least not for free. And, when you’re running a small webhosting company (or in this case, a non-profit webhosting company) you don’t really have the cash to spend on a product you don’t really like anyway.

So now I’m pondering writing the pieces myself and doing the configuration manually until it’s done. Ugh.

Anyone know of decent software that allows users to configure apache, mysql, SMTP and IMAP/POP services on their own?
