    Good day, 

    A couple of quick questions. I am trying to run the syncmin manager with problems. When I try to enter a job, I get an error "An error has occurred : You must enter a password.." and yes I did enter a password. Tried several username/password combos including root. No luck. Any ideas?

      Probably the secrets file has not been populated properly. Try setting one up by hand in the directory you specify for the job..

    Good Morning,
    I am new to this so I will need some hand holding, I apologize in advance. I am very familiar with syncing files but I am getting an error like the gentleman above. How do I determine which directory is the one for the job?

    I just spotted this error as well "Require syncmin/syncmin-lib.pl failed : Died at (eval 321) line 1."

    Directory listing of where it installed (I don't see a secrets file or I don't know the name of it):

    rpiadmin@rpi4-nas-04:~ $ ls -al /usr/share/webmin/syncmin

    Did I install this incorrectly?

    Also does the syncmin module need to be installed on both ends? "Source and Target?"

    Thank you for your time, I am very excited about this module by the way.
    Michael
