#5576 Webmin Servers Index "logout" link does not work

[Craig Williams]

OS: Debian Bullseye

In reference to https://sourceforge.net/p/webadmin/bugs/168/ but not the same.

I see there is now a "logout" button on the Webmin Servers Index page for each logged-in link server, however the logout link just opens a new tab and doesn't actually log the user out (using the "Login when icon is clicked on" link type). In my case I had to log in as root to add a new webmin user, but now I can't log the root user out to connect via the intended new user.

Hello,

The new dropdown on navigation menu simply shows all Servers Index servers in a convenient list for faster switching between servers. Described here - https://forum.virtualmin.com/t/authentic-theme-19-85-releases-overview-delayed/114824.

Logout link is not expected to be there at all at the first place!

Is this an unreleased feature? It doesn't appear to be available to me... All I have is a button which takes me back to the "Webmin Servers Index module on the Master server" in place of where the logout button is on the master server.

In any case, I'm talking about the server icons on the Webmin Servers Index page.

This button acts as a return button to master and if you have more than one server there will be a dropdown of other servers.

In any case, I'm talking about the server icons on the Webmin Servers Index page.

That I would have to take a closer look at.

A little bit of investigation done myself, it looks like /usr/share/webmin/servers/logout.cgi is trying (and failing) to delete a cookie which is related to the log-in session for the linked-to server.

Thanks for reporting this. We will fix that on the next Webmin release.
