I feel like Madonna... I am a Windows guy, and I live in a Windows world. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the command line, it is just knowing the how, when, why, and where that gets me...
That being said, I guess a have a problem with the documentation for SME server, or I am looking in the wrong places.
The problem with SME in my view is that although it is easy for beginners, it is also made tough to modify by the server. Since things are changed in an unorthodox manner (in comparison to most Linux distro's) it is hard to know what can be modified and not be "reverted" by SME.
Also, if many changes can be made, and the info is in the developers guides, then they really aren't developers guides..... they are users manuals. I have never looked in there as I am not a developer, and have no aspirations of being a developer, but I do make changes that many System Administrators would make. I guess I need to look through the developers areas.
I am fairly new to SME, I know many of you have been around a while and have been through all of the pains, and learned all of the in's and out's of SME, some of newer users comments may seem critical and uncalled for in your eyes, because you have always seen SME the way it is.
But, unfortunately we as newer users don't have that knowledge to fall on, so we rely on you guys to guide us in the right direction, and hopefully some of our critical comments won't fall on deaf ears, but enlightened eyes, this is how changes (that others haven't thought to make) can be made... you know, progress.

....No flame intended.... just writing my thoughts
Thanks for your help. I will dig a little deeper. I hadn't thought to look up SSH.
