use NetDirector to provide robust, consolidated and integrated system console
for enterprise adoption of Ubuntu, a robust, integrated system console is important to prevent console overload, and to deliver automated revision control for configuration changes, role-based authentication and authorization, a UI for newbies and the ability to edit config files manually for experts. NetDirector provides this. I'd like to discuss getting it into main or universe.

Whiteboard
as discussed in the server session Monday morning, I think we need to break the manageability question into two categories - SMB and Enterprise. we need to understand the requirements in each segment , because they are fundametally different and have implications for architecture. Once we understand them, then we can reconcile them architecturally, but the starting point needs to be a firm undserstading of what the SMB user needs in terms of management and what the enterprise needs.

Mathais asked a question at this session about how NetDirector handles .conf file includes and links to other files. The answer is NetDirector handles this in a recursive process by our parser. Let's say the parser saw an “include” statement inside the config file. The parser then will open the include file and parse it.
