Hi Chris,

we're using Confixx 1.6.3 and it's really okay, although navigation
could be somewhat better (less clicking). Unfortunately Confixx is
known to have some bugs, and we recently had some problems
because it made some mess in the domain setup (you'll then have
to fix this via telnet), but this should be a very rare problem. On the
other hand we were told not to use the latest version (2.0) as it
seems to have some serious bugs (you may find more information
in related forums).

Confixx is Perl / PHP based, unfortunately it's not free.
