How you tell your browser not to append .com would vary according to the browser, check the archives for more info on that. I see you got your solution, but if anyone else can't get it to stop that way: The issue with firebird is even worse: there's some sort of google search that i couldn't seem to turn off. And when i did 127.0.0.1, i got the same, which i couldn't figure out. Or does the /etc/hosts file work both ways: 127.0.0.1 turns into localhost? Anyway, my solution was to run webmin on bootup. This way, when you try to go to webmin, since that port is already running, firebird didn't try to search any further... eric -- Mandrake HowTo's More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Good point!!! Thanks. dgssoftware and currently all ports except ssh, are bolted down. How safe would it dgssoftware be for me to allow the port 1 for webmin. Is this good or is there dgssoftware some real threats associated with this. Webmin is already installed The MOST secure way : make a ssh tunel to webmin. To webmin it will look like you are coming from 127.0.0.1 so you can block acces to port 1 to the outside world and you can set access in webmin only to 127.0.0.1. So the only way someone can acces webmin is to have a ssh account.

no. root doesn't work. i don't have any users in webmin, including root, so i can't log in. i guess i'm going to have to uninstall the rpm and reinstall it. unless you have another idea... mg -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Franki Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2001 10:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [expert] webmin does root work? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of goldengull.net administrator Sent: Thursday, 22 February 2001 4:23 AM To: mandrake user Subject: [expert] webmin i erased my only user in webmin. *takes a bow* how can i fix? i tried running the setup script again, but no such luck. mg

[expert] webmin won't work. :(
Hi, all, I enabled webmin as stand alone service. Now I can access it with port 1. However, after input the root and password correctly, it always says 'Authorization failed. Retry?' I have no idea what's going wrong. Any thoughts to make it work? Regards, Xuejun
Re: [expert] webmin won't work. :(
I believe that the superuser for webmin is not neccesarily root. I would look through the conf file(which I think is in /etc)for webmin for the superuser name and password. you can just set it there in plain text. for security you also might want to set webmin to a different port number. Hope this helps. Sam.

Re: [expert] Webmin
I didn't see anything indicating the message you got. If you cannot connect that way, it is likely that Webmin is not running--use DrakConf - Traffic signal to make sure it starts. In fact rpm -qa | grep webmin to make sure it is installed. I t does not install by default in all types of installation.

KFM will not work, you will have success with netscape. Muzza.

G'day, Try this, put "localhost" in "Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with" in your browser "Advanced Proxy Settings", and see if that helps. - Original Message - From: "Jarmo" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, 8 July 2000 23:00 Subject: Re: [expert] Webmin http://127.0.0.1:1 should ask you for a login.
