Usermin is a web interface that can be used by any user on a Unix system to easily perform tasks like reading mail, setting up SSH or configuring mail forwarding. It can be thought of as a simplified version of Webmin designed for use by normal users rather than system administrators.
Like Webmin, Usermin consists of a simple web server, and a number of CGI programs which directly update user config files like ~/.cshrc and ~/.forward. The web server and all CGI programs are written in Perl version 5, and use only the non-standard Authen::PAM perl module
"Setting up a home network with Linux and Win95, using Samba, IP Masquerading, and diald has been described many times, also in the Linux Gazette, but so far I have not found a recipe for setting up mail on a small network with only one dial-up e-mail account. In this article I want to explain how I did it."
