I looked over the news on the contribs web page called” Sun open sources Cobalt Qube/Raq software”
I have also checked out there open source web page. http://open.cobaltqube.org/ It looks like we may have another alternative to webmin. I was able to install the cube3 software on my redhat 9 box and could even get the cube interface via web browser. It asks me for a username and password and I don’t know what the default one is or how to find it. There is a how to on installing it on red hat but it is in Chinese.
Do any of you know of a form for the open source qube3 software or a news group? Do any of you have any experience with it? Any information would be great.
If you know the password it has by default that would be nice.
Thanks.

I have spent about 6 hours so far and it is just a cobalt cube

Hmm something ells must be wrong with my install then. I tried admin admin.
I gut the software from ftp://open.cobaltqube.org/pub/BlueQuartz/redhat/
What didn’t you like about it? Did it have more or less features? I know it is not really in the same ball park as SME as it is more like webmen. But I love new toys to play with. I always had a lot of respect for cobalt servers. To bad the have gone the way of Mitel and stopped development of the software.

Try http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/_wizard/

Haha I can’t find out how to start it back up now that I have restarted my red hat box. Can you help me where is it installed and what file do I put in my startup scripts.
-
You don't have to change your startup scripts. I've installed the file from ftp://open.cobaltqube.org/pub/BlueQuartz/redhat/ , opened http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/_wizard/
(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your local ip) to set some basic options (like the admin password) and it's running. Also after a restart of your redhat box.
It's all explained on http://open.cobaltqube.org/source/index.html :
Unpack the tar+gzip archive and do install.sh inside of the directory.
# tar zxvf BlueQuartz-200xxxxx.tar.gz
# cd BlueQuartz-200xxxxx
# ./install.sh
After that, you can reach http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/login to manage the box.
Try http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/_wizard/ if you want to initial setting up
by wizard interface.

I must be missing something. When I try the wizard it just kicks me back to user name password screen. I must have my apache miss configured. I just installed a server install of red hat 9 and install the cobalt software and that is it. It has bin so long sense I configured apache by hand to handle CGI. When I check my apache error log I se this entry.
Child poses 2554 still does not exist sending sigterm
SME has spoiled me.

lol, SME has spoiled me too, but I was just curious if this wanted to work. I've installed the Cobalt software on a clean RH 9 installation (full install), without any changes in the configuration. Seems to work out of the box, but I've only taken a quick look. I can access the server, add users, etc.

I figured it out. You just have to be sour to install all the apache modules. The one rh9 picks by default are not sufficient.
