Hi, 
I do understand what you are saying . I am an X Server developer
and at least one of my earlier X servers XS3  ran on FreeBSD and 
Linux;additionallly , you still have the option of running X apps on 
the server.

Yes, I use my laptop to configure servers -- I have the gui front
end plus lots of develpment tools so I not only can configure
my servers I can also hack on them.

>because ppl dont have support for it when they need it.

I guess you must really hate IBM's Websphere HTML interface 8)

Which is fine . I think the non - lynx like interface is for ease use
and not necessarily for experts --- The experts can use vi to edit
the configuration files if they like .
