Always good to double-check.  :)  "ipchains -nL" and "iptables -
<something>" (haven't used iptables, so you'll have to figure out the 
command to list the current ruleset).  :)

Okay, so it is listening on all interfaces.  Try connecting to it from a 
client station, and then check if it's actually connecting to the 
server.  If you do a "netstat -an | grep EST" you should see a line 
similare to:
tcp    0    <ip addy>:10000     <client ip>:<some port>  ESTABLISHED

If you don't see this, then there is something preventing your packets 
from reacing the WebMin process.

Other than the above, not at the moment.  :)
