The webadmin tools were dropped. There are new developed tool in
the YaST framework there. So you now could setup a LDAP based SLES9
config DHCP DNS MAIL SAMBA APACHE CA ... with yast tools. Most of
this tools have more functionality than the SLSS web tools.
What is not there is, what was behind the web based user login.
