g-s-t is an option under Debian but not installed with Gnome as far as I
can tell.  I don't think Debian has any other ways to do these things in
the GUI.  From what I understand of the plans of the Debian Desktop sub
project is that g-s-t was something they wanted to use but WebMin would
be the default configuration tool.  I haven't heard much about it lately
so my understanding might be a bit out of date.
