I already have Red HAt 9 setup on Six server 2 DNS 2 Web 2 Mail

I would like to use directadmin on a 7th and 8th box as a control panel frontend for all of them is this possible?

if not why?

If Yes then where is the manual showing how you do this.
 
DirectAdmin is not made for a multi-server environment. Trying to make it as such is probably more work than it's worth.

Hopefully this feature will be implemented in the near future.

I feel a centeralized control panel for all of your servers is not a waste of time if your running 5, 10, 15 servers or more much more
and you see an appliacation like DA that has ease of uses for the end user. Thats great but on the back end as the administrator I want to be able to centeralize the use of my server 2 for dns 2 for appache 2 for mysql 2 for sendmail and so on. Dedicating a server to one or two task is always better then putting all of you eggs in one basket..... As an administrator of both linux and of god yes MS boxes I feel that a one or 2 servers is with a control panel like DA is better servered as what its intent is a control panel...... Is ther any way I can use direct admins contol panel as a rediect to all my servers.



Thanks

As I said before, yes it is possible, but you will have to manage everything by hand or setup your own system to do the work. MySQL and DNS are the only services that I have heard confirmed to setup on different servers, which you can find more information on by searching the forums. I am not sure about using email on different servers. Something rings a bell that a configuration in DirectAdmin was requested so that email could be run off-server.
