Any one running MCE Core with Webmin or NXServer?

I've had my hybrid core get all messed up twice  - see http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=5341.msg31259#msg31259

Does anyone know if there's a problem with running NXServer?  I know the MCE Launcher does NOT work from a remote NX session and neither does the cd installer.  Both times I hosed up my core I tried running the launcher remotely.

How bout webmin?  The only thing I can think of is that I reconfigured samba to appear on my workgroup - but I doubt that would cause this kind of problem.  Any suggestions before I reinstall and cause yet another fu?

thanks in advance

I don't have any of that on my Hybrid, what do you need it for?

NXServer is a very fast remote desktop (free) product - way faster than X or VNC.  Since my core is in a closet, I'd like remote access and since I'm a lame *nix user, I like my GUIs.  For this same reason, I find Webmin is a great linux administration tool.  Unfortunately startup scripts and the like don't work with pluto/mce (until we make it more of a kubuntu add-on).

Anyway, I recently reinstalled again and did not put NX or webmin on.  I am trying to keep it as vanilla as possible.
