#3372 Many copies of miniserv.pl running

[Anonymous]

Francisco Leovey email is fleovey@saij.jus.gov.ar

I have Webmin 1.470 on a redhat Linux newly installed
The only other service running is Squid and there is only 1 webmin IP allowed (me)
However there are multiple copies of miniserv.pl active , sometimes more than 10
Is there a way to limit to 1 or 2 the number of copies?

Thank you

Seeing several miniserv.pl processes is normal - they will typically still have connections open to your browser to handle future requests.

However, you can disable this and thus reduce the number of processes by editing /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf and adding the line :

nokeepalive=1

then running /etc/webmin/restart

Thank you - it worked fine
