If I run the command from a term, it is successful, with output like this: zoneclient.py: but when I run the same command (copied and pasted) from Webmin --> Cron, I get "error returned", and the IP is not updated...

I'm just starting to go through this but wanted you to have it in case there's
something there that may help and you may (probably will) spot it before I do
and can send the information to the list.
I went "hunting" 'cause I couldn't find a Webmin manual in Mandrake 9.0.

It's Konqueror that's used, and I can't see any relevant settings there. In the Webmin login page you can right-click on the username line, and from the menu you can disable the completion feature, which in effect turns off the drop-down list, but next time you come back the list is still there, and it has forgotten what you wanted. I'm sure there must be a config page somewhere in webmin for its own use, but I can't find that either. This is important, though, because one login contains a username and password on the same line - a rejected login - which is displayed if you enter the same first letter.

Re: [newbie] webmin cookies
All browsers eh? Could you have a permissions problem in your home directory? Do you actually own your ~/.mozilla or ~/.galeon directories?

Re: [newbie] Webmin
And keep in mind Marcia. If you've changed your root passwd from what it was at install, you will have to use the root passwd that you used AT install. You may also have to edit the /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf to make it work. Depending on if SSL is compiled and installed, or configured. You may need to change the line that reads "ssl=1" you may need to set that to "ssl=0" to get that to come up. After you do that, restart the webmin and you should be good to go. I really only use webmin to use the ssh module. I set it up so my user can log in, and then only use the Java ssh module on Windows machines that don't have a ssh client. tdh -- T.

As ROOT, edit the file /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf I believe it's line 11, that by default reads: ssl=1 Unless you have ssl configured and the cert created, you will not be able to gain access to the webmin. If you change that line to read: ssl=0 You will be able to get by using http://hostname:1. Once you've gotten that far, keep in mind that webmin will ONLY recogize the root user, and the root passwd specified at install. If you have since changed the root passwd, the new passwd will not work. So I hope you either remember the original root passwd, or haven't changed it. As far as ssh goes. Stick with it! It's more secure then telnet unless you're using another kind of telnet.

All, I have installed webmin for my Linux machine. Everything works (as far as I can tell anyway), except for 2 things: 1. I must type out the full name of my machine, as opposed to using "localhost" or even 127.0.0.1 to be able to access the webmin page sitting at the computer. 2. I've seen it said hundreds of times to use "https" instead of "http" to connect to webmin.

My setup is a windows machine running a freeware proxy setup, which my Linux machins calls up to collect mail and access the 'net. I want the scenario to be the opposite, but have not figured out how to have the Linux box as the proxy and gateway and so enable the 'doze machine to access the internet through the Linux setup.

[newbie] Webmin.....
I have been using RedHat 6.2 with Webmin for remote control in my home. I saw the new Mandraake 7.2 system and decided I had to have it. Everything is working perfect except: browser based utilities likne linuxconf, SWAT, Telnet, and Webmin. To access Webmin, I use http://webmin:1. I never had this problem on RedHat si I'm assuming my setup is incorrect. Any thoughts? Fred Klaus __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores.

I presume that you use Mandrake 7.2 (you mention Konqueror). With this distribution, Webmin is configured by default for a secure connection through SSL. You need to specify this by changing the 'http' prefix of the URL to 'https'. So you'll have to use https://localhost:1

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1 you need to use port 1 to get startedyou can change the port later. On Tue, 24 Oct 2000, Jeff Malka wrote: > Webmin came installed on my Mandrake 7.1 installation.
