Confirmed.  Will investigate/reissue if I can fix it.

Stew, this bug exists in Cooker too.  I reported it as bug #12129, so if you 
fix it in 10.0, please fix it in 10.1 and cooker also?

I've just updated Webmin on my 9.2 installation and am having the same 
problem. Will there be a fix for that?

Yes, fixed across the board (except cooker which is frozen).  In secteam 
testing should be released mid-week next week, provided I didn't break 
something else in the process.  Tested CS2.1, 9.2, 10.0, 10.1 myself and 
did not have the reported issue with the cron module (I also noted a 
problem with the backup module before the fix).

FYI: It is always best to upgrade/update Webmin THROUGH Webmin -
sometimes doing it outside (via RPM or what have you) can break modules
(of which cron is); therefore, when you want to update try to do so
whilst in Webmin (along with modules); you'll find that the experience
is slight more, er, happy?

Unless you hope to keep your rpm database in sync with the installed

Webmin is standalone from the entire RPM system structure - bear in mind
that it is autonomous to your distro - it is a tool that is able to
adminster almost any *nix system - and can be kept from the local
system's package database.

What?  It's not independent of the rpm database if it was installed via 
rpm originally.

OK. Cooker I would hope would go to a newer version, but I think it's 
orphaned with gc's departure. 10.0 issue is definitely related to the last 
tmpfile fix.

You guys are making my day :)
