That's all fine and dandy for the desktop case.
But its a dhcp server, network admins would be expected to touch config files, and the interface for a DHCP server really can't be much worse than the GUI version that microsoft supplies!
but digressions, to say "this is why I won't use a linux desktop" in response to a server-specific use-case, is at best antagonistic!

- Hydraulix989 9y agoIt's still a fair point, even if a little "off topic' wrt parent and still perfectly on topic wrt this submission.
