When I edit a very long file and save it afterwards it overwrites
passages in the middle of the file and a file viewer like less only
shows lines of @-signs instead of the real content in this passages.
but te content above and below this passages is the content it
should be. this doesn't happen to every file I am saving but only to a
few. I detected this bug only in version 0.990 of webmin, in lower
versions this didn't happen. so could you please take a look at the
edit function of your file-manager.

    Sounds like a bug ..
    Which browser and version are you running?

    By default I am running Opera (version 6.01) but I checked it out also with
    other browsers.

    How long are these files? I have been able to edit some text
    files of
    around 100kb with no problems ..

    well one file where i got this problem, was the
    /etc/apache/httpd.conf (apache-confiiguration) or
    /etc/squid.conf. also editing /etc/rc.config.d/firewall2.rc.config
    resulted in a cut file. i also checked this on differentd
    computers with different browsers. it's always the same.

    I'm still trying to figure out the cause of this one ..
    What operating system are you running webmin on, and is
    there any
    proxy server between your browser and the webmin server?

    The systems where I am running webmin are all windows-based
    (win2000). A Proxy is between the client and the webmin-server. but I also
    checked it on a system without a proxy.

    I'm running a webmin 1.210 on TSL server and have the same
    problem. Webmin cuts files when they are bigger than approx
    50 kb. A 100 kb file can then be 44 kb or 55 kb or whatever
    but never above 60 kb. I'm using webmin from win xp machine
    with IE 6.
