While I have some gripes of my own about Webmin, it was also a significant or even the primary factor in my being able to place FreeBSD fileservers running Samba, LDAP, dhcpd, etc as replacement boxes for Windows PDC/ADC boxes at various client sites over the years, since the locals could do web-based administration of a system without needing to be a Unix sysadmin.
