A remote manager for GNU/Linux servers
Cockpit is an interactive server admin interface. It is easy to use and very light weight.
Cockpit is perfect for new sysadmins, allowing them to easily perform simple tasks such as storage administration, inspecting journals and starting and stopping services.
Jumping between the terminal and the web tool is no problem. A service started via Cockpit can be stopped via the terminal. Likewise, if an error occurs in the terminal, it can be seen in the Cockpit journal interface.
You can monitor and administer several servers at the same time. Just add them with a single click and your machine will look after its buddies.

Unless you got Cockpit via a stable release of an OS, treat it as pre-release software. We recommend installing pre-release versions in a virtual machine.
