I've upgraded to Webmin 1.03 on two Mandrake 9.0
stations.

The upgrade seems to work fine but after a reboot
webmin is no more accessible neither from the station
nor from the network.

I've found any error messages in webmin logs.

    Sounds like webmin isn't being start at boot time for some
    reason ..
    Use the command /etc/webmin/start to start it, and then the
    Bootup and Shutdown module to create a new action that runs
    /etc/webmin/start at boot time (or enable the existing webmin
    action to start at boot)

    Thank for your reply Jamie.

    Have you tried both http:// and https:// URLs to connect?

    After a check it's running with hhtp:// BUT in the miniserver
    configuration file the ssl parameter is set to 1.

    Have a nice day.

    That is normal .. mandrake's webmin RPM includes the SSL key
    as part
    of the package, so when you uninstall it (such as when
    upgrading) they
    key file is lost! This is really the wrong behaviour, and
    not what the official
    webmin RPM does ..

    That's working now :-) after
    creating /etc/ssl/webmin/miniserv.pem to respect the
    miniserver's configuration file. (and maybe mdk 9.0's logic)

    I've tried on a customer's server with mdk 8.2 without any
    problem and any modifications but the .pem file is still
    in /etc/webmin.

    Thanks for your help
