If it is a server that must be secure then the less on the system the less 
likely to have a security hole. In this case it might be well to configure 
the system "manually" from the command line.

If security is not an issue by all means I would use the GUI approach, but, 
remember that all GUI programs will use somewhat a "cookie cutter" approach.
