There is a tool called Comanche which assists in managing Apache through the
web (like what SWAT does for Samba).

There are a number of tools for specialized functions, eg, phpmyadmin,
phpmadmin, phppgadmin, etc etc, for managing databases. I can't remember the
name of the tool off-hand, but there is another for managing mailing lists.

I'll be writing a management tool for bind, which will have two areas, one
administrative, one client (eg, clients aren't allowed to FUBAR too many
things <G>). Not sure when I'm going to get started since my slave
nameserver died two days ago, but, it'll probably be soon.

There are a grip of tools written in PHP for editing HTML (php too) that are
pretty good. Perusing around php.net turns up some interesting tools though.

i don't know if this is any kind of answer to your question, but at the zope
site there are a lot of web hosting sites now for zope developers; although
there aren't very many companies who are familiar with what zope is/does,
having it and explaining it to customers and potential customers might find
a lot more people using it.
