Hi Jamie, Could it be possible to add a "Download file" type in custom menu. I could have my users download a file without giving them the "Upload and Download" option of custom command Greatings Sart |

That way you could have a command that just runs : cat /path/to/file That could be implemented relatively easily.. - Jamie |

Hi Jamie, As usual, thank you for your fast reply. The file that I want to download to my user is a "helpdesk.exe" setup file for Windows. I see the problem that you may have, My request may be a "custom command" with no "script to execute" Greatings Sart ----- Original Message ---- From: Jamie Cameron <jca...@we...> To: Webmin users list <web...@li...> Sent: Sun, September 26, 2010 6:51:59 PM Subject: Re: [webmin-l] One clic download from custom command On 26/Sep/2010 14:54 Sart Cole <sar...@ya...> wrote .. > Hi Jamie, > > Could it be possible to add a "Download file" type in custom menu. > > I could have my users download a file without giving them the "Upload and > Download" > > option of custom command How about if there was a custom command option to have the output of the command be entirely what gets downloaded in the browser?

Actually, maybe an even simpler solution would be to create your own tiny Webmin module for just downloading files. All you would need to do is create the directory /usr/libexec/webmin/mydownloads , and in it place the files you want to make available. Then create a module.info file in the same directory containing the line : desc=My Downloads Next, delete the file /etc/webmin/module.infos.cache then go to Webmin -> Webmin Users, click on your name and grant yourself access to the "My Downloads" module. Finally logout and login again, and you should see it under the "Others" category. - Jamie On 26/Sep/2010 19:10 Sart Cole <sar...@ya...> wrote .. > Hi Jamie, > > Maby my answers should have been... > > Would that work for a ".exe" file > > Greatings > > Sart > > > > ----- Original Message ---- > From: Sart Cole <sar...@ya...> > To: Webmin users list <web...@li...> > Sent: Sun, September 26, 2010 9:50:46 PM > Subject: Re: [webmin-l] One clic download from custom command > > Hi Jamie, > > As usual, thank you for your fast reply. > > The file that I want to download to my user is a "helpdesk.exe" setup file for > Windows. > > I see the problem that you may have, > > My request may be a "custom command" with no "script to execute" > > Greatings > > Sart > > > ----- Original Message ---- > From: Jamie Cameron <jca...@we...> > To: Webmin users list <web...@li...> > Sent: Sun, September 26, 2010 6:51:59 PM > Subject: Re: [webmin-l] One clic download from custom command > > On 26/Sep/2010 14:54 Sart Cole <sar...@ya...> wrote .. > > Hi Jamie, > > > > Could it be possible to add a "Download file" type in custom menu. > > > > I could have my users download a file without giving them the "Upload and > > Download" > > > > option of custom command > > How about if there was a custom command option to have the output of > the command be entirely what gets downloaded in the browser?

Thanks Jamie, Your solution will give me a chance to know even more about webmin.
