Usermin is configured separately .. to adjust the domain it uses, you
need to do the following :

1) Go to the Usermin Configuration module
2) Click on Usermin Module Configuration
3) Click on Read Mail
4) On the page that appears you can set the domain name for outgoing
mail, or even choose a file that maps different users to different
domains.

Re: [webmin-l] bind template file

From: Obantec Support <support@ob...> - 2005-10-30 07:23

Hi Jamie

I fixed the template problem as i had not included the path!

Only thing left is should @ be replaced by testdomain.com in the
testdomain.com.hosts file or is @ some special syntax that bind uses so @ is
testdomain.com taken from the SOA header.

1 last thing the default nameserver in zone defaults , as i have all 3 of
mine in the template i have tried to find a way to switch off the Default. ?
a possible addition??

The @ is actually interpreted by BIND as 'the current domain' , so it
can remain in the zone file unchanged.

It is probably best to leave the master out of the template, and let
Webmin add it automatically..

Re: [webmin-l] re: upgrade

From: Jamie Cameron <jcameron@we...> - 2005-10-30 21:39

One possible problem could be DNS resolution. Try logging in as root via SSH, and re-starting Webmin at the command line with:

/etc/webmin/stop
/etc/webmin/start

And then re-trying the upgrade.

OK I can donwload using wget and i can go to WEBMINS website and download the tar form there too.  But i can not do it from with webmin.  Hope that helps you to figure out what is wrong.

    No...that progress meter is your client-side browser and only shows 

    what's happening between you and the Webmin server.  You're not 

    downloading anything more than the progress page from Webmin to your own 

    client machine--you're triggering a download on your Webmin server. 

    Webmin has its own progress indicator, and if you don't see it begin 

    downloading and reporting the percentages in the browser window the 

    download is not starting at all and that is the source of your trouble. 

      It is possibly a firewall, as Vernon mentioned, or just as likely DNS 

    trouble--you can find out by trying a download from the command line 

    using wget, just as Vernon and I pointed out in the last couple of 

    messages...try it, please, and get back to us with the result.  This is 

    not a bug in Webmin that anyone else is seeing, nor is it a problem on 

    the download servers, so repeatedly telling us "it doesn't work" isn't 

    going to do any good.  The problem is on your machine, and we're trying 

    to help you solve it.  Help us help you, or we'll never get anywhere.

 

    What happens when you run:

 

    wget 

    http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin-1.240.tar.gz

 

    (All on one line.)

 

    If it works (I'll be surprised) then the problem is somewhere in Webmin 

    and we'll need to look a bit deeper.  But I'm betting you'll either get 

    a host not found error indicating that your DNS is improperly

I'm all for it.

Just curious - by default, Webmin doesn't include rfc822Mailbox or mail
as a standard attributes and I've always added it for the base
mailboxes. There is no standard for a mail alias unless you are talking
about the objectclass nisMailAlias which is not an attribute so I'm not
entirely sure where you are headed when you say the 'mail alias will be
automatically enforced' but I'm interested.

I'm  wondering if the mail alias being unique should be optional on it's
intended use.  In my setup I have postfix configured to use an
ldap-aliases file to search my LDAP directory for recipients.  The
search looks for matching mail and alias attributes and returns the
matching users uid names which correspond with their Cyrus mailbox names
so the mail can be delivered.  I just tried adding the same alias e-mail
address attribute to two users and an e-mail to the alias is delivered
to both of them.  This is probably what should happen in this case and
is often pretty useful - ie. basic mailing list functionality.  Maybe we
need separate Personal Mail Aliases and Group Mail Alias entry fields -
the former enforcing uniqueness and the latter not. The group alias
would normally only be used when we specifically have a need to direct
e-mail to a group of users via a common address.

Fair enough .. I will make duplicate checking for the alias manual.

There are 13 root servers, but they are all listed in a single file.
This file actually comes with Webmin, or can be downloaded automatically
during the BIND module setup process.

You don't generally need to worry about re-downloading, as the root
servers very rarely change..

[webmin-l] New Virtualmin Modules

From: Vernon J. Spangler <vernon@ve...> - 2005-10-30 11:21

Hey everyone and what's new with you? I see that there are a lot of people
that use Virtualmin and Webmin for hosting needs and as most of you have
seen that I and Jamie are the only ones really designing any third party
modules for them and everyone. It would be nice to see more developers but
it would be nice to sit on out butts all day and do nothing also. So with
that retarded thought in mind.

I am releasing a module really shortly, say like in a few hours for
Virtualmin. This module is called Virtualmin phpMyAdmin. A very simple
module for people that already have phpMyAdmin configured some where on
there server aka like Squirrel Mail. But they do not want to release the
information of it's where about. This module works a lot like the custom
Links but it doesn't take you to another page. Instead opens a new page with
no toolbar on the browsers. And has a portion where you can put in a message
or a disclaimer.

I will also be adjusting Virtualmin Custom Link to match this same effect
and you will be able to still down load the older version too.

You feedback on these improvements is always welcome.

Not necessarily -- many ISPs block ICMP.

True .. but not usually at the system call level :-)

Re: [webmin-l] Clustering and RPC issues

From: Jamie Cameron <jcameron@we...> - 2005-10-30 04:30

The issue here is almost certainly that the login you have specified on the master system for the slave is not 'root' or 'admin'. By default, only those two users are allowed to be used for RPC as they have complete access to all Webmin features.

If your master user on the slave system is called something other than 'root' or 'admin', you will need to do the following:

- Go to the Webmin Users module on the slave system
- Click on the Global ACL link next to the master user's name
- Change the 'Can accept RCP calls' option to Yes , and click Save

I have been trying for the longest time to setup clustering and every time I do I get 
the following error message: Invalid RPC login to 192.168.0.11

Any ideas on what's going wrong? I have portmap running (which I think is what I need 
running) and have disabled the firewall (in case there is a port that needs to be 
open, is there?) with no luck.

Thanks,
Vern

Hi Craig,
For the mail aliases I was refering to the 'alias' attribute, which I think Cyrus uses..

I'm all for it.

Just curious - by default, Webmin doesn't include rfc822Mailbox or mail
as a standard attributes and I've always added it for the base
mailboxes. There is no standard for a mail alias unless you are talking
about the objectclass nisMailAlias which is not an attribute so I'm not
entirely sure where you are headed when you say the 'mail alias will be
automatically enforced' but I'm interested.
