I understand the usefulness of the terminal and how universal it is for troubleshooting across distros. But can’t there be a way to make a nice graphical tool for the various admin level tasks that need to be performed?

Edit: Thank you to the outpouring of feedback on this. It has greatly opened my eyes to how much I don’t know about. I did see a couple suggestions though, so I’ll be sure to check them out.

    Linux administration often involves a lot of everchanging tools. How many GUIs would be needed?

    And how do you represent a echo foo > bar.cfg (or any other such command) in a GUI? Unfortunately it’s not that easy. :(
