eBox 0.11.101 is out

The eBox development team proudly presents the lastest eBox platform release. 0.11.101 is a maintenance release that ships a bunch of bugfixes to polish and increase the stability of your favourite administration tool.

We have also ported ebox-webserver to Ubuntu, a pretty simple module to manage an Apache server. With this module your users might have a public_html directory under their home or you can just create virtual domains.
