It seems that when i change a password of a login on webmin that webmin crashes.. It only happends twice so far but i only tried twice this yet..

Or atleast, webmin did not responded anymore. When i connected with ssh (and doing ps ux | grep webmin) i saw 3 running processes of webmin. I killed them and restared webmin (/etc/webmin/start). After this webmin worked fine and the password was changed.

So i'm not sure if that is a bug or not.. I haven't had the time to check it out properly

    Some people have reported this before, and the cause was an
    old/incompatible version of openssl. Are you running webmin in SSL mode,
    and does turning it off make any difference?

    I also changed a password but am not so lucky as you.
    The screen after the password change was "page not found".

    I now get: Error - Access denied for myIPAddress

    I had a friend try from another location and he got the same
    thing.

    I stopped webmin for awhile then restarted it but same error.

    If the password change got corrupted somehow, that would
    or should not result in assecc denied, it should be some sort
    of password mismatch. or??

    anyone have any idea?
    webmin is 0.91 but will be updated soon
