I decided to try webmin, wtf is this? They totally trashed it now.

All configuration is done in a tiny frame area, and theres like hardly no configuration at all.

network interfaces, routing, hostname and host addresses, thats it.

Could I have done something wrong when I installed it? since this is horrible.

The interface is different depending depending on Disto. It is WILDLY different on Debian based installs as compared to RedHat based. I've got it running on servers of both Debian and RedHat ilk, and though the interface looks a lot different, the functionality is pretty much the same. LOTS of modules, so I'm thinking your install may have gone awry.

Thats what I figured, since I remember being able to do more, now theres 3 basic configurations, and they're all shoved in a frame instead of in the main window.

I just installed it on a new CentOS box and got the new, framed, version.

I switched back classic (at least classic to me) by going to:

Webmin -> Change Language and Theme -> Webmin UI theme -> Personal Choice -> MSC.Linux Theme

Now it looks old fashioned... just the way I like it!
