From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hello everyone! I know that Linux GUI advanced in last few years but we still lack some good system configuration tools for advanced users or sysadmins. What utilities you miss on Linux? And is there any normal third party alternatives?

Found this not so long ago and it literally made me sad I don't manage an LDAP anymore!

Based on the docs, it should work with LDAP, but is focused on AD. I really only need it for initial create and whatnot, so I'm gonna give it a whirl, and hopefully, doesn't let me down.

If not, I'll need to git gud with go, and do some PR's :)
