RE: How-to get Mozilla 0.99 to work w/webmin (file manager)?I'm running =
Mozilla 0.98 on my Linux box, and have no problem with the file manager =
in Webmin.

Michael, sorry if this is asking you something you've already tried, but =
under Edit/Preferences/Advanced do you have a check by both "Enable =
Javamachine" and "Enable Java in Navigator"?

  Hi !

  I'm using webmin over SSL. Using IE5.0, it works fine. But I think =
Netscape 6.2 (Win32) & Mozilla have a serious lack in SSL support : they =
do not use the OpenSSL library (maybe because Netscape thinks it owns =
the SSL standard ?) and very few https site actually work with these =
browsers.

  Here is the problems I encountered with browsers & SSL :

  1) There was a certificate for webmin shipped with my distribution =
(Mandrake 8.1) and when using this one, webmin starts, IE works fine and =
Netscape does not (it does not give me any error but doesn't show =
webmin). I've also tried Mozilla and it seemed to work fine but I can't =
remember if I was able to access the file manager.

  2) I generated my own certificate signed by my own CA using a DSA =
private key : webmin doen't start (Net::SSLeay problem ?)

  3) I generated my own certificate signed by my own CA using a RSA =
private key : webmin starts, IE works fine and Netscape gives me an =
"unknown SSL error (-12204)". Using Mozilla, I have the same problem =
with the JRE.

  Vincent.

manager)?

  Greetings:

  I have Webmin 0.93 running successfully on a Redhat 7.1 system with =
Apache,
  Samba, and Postfix.

  I normally access Webmin through a Win 98 box running IE 5.5 or =
Netscape 4.08.

  I recently downloaded Mozilla 0.99 and proceeded to access Webmin.  =
Webmin
  worked fine until I tried to access the file manager (java applet).  =
All I
  got was a Java Icon which directed me to download JRE (Java Runtime
  Environment) which I already have.

  I downloaded the JRE and I still could not get Mozilla to use the JRE. =
 I
  tried to use Opera 6.0 and same result.  I also tried to use Netscape =
6.1
  and no go.  All other functions of Webmin are fine with the lone =
exception
  being the file manager applet under Mozilla .99, Opera 6.0, and =
Netscape 6.1.

  I find this problem mystifying.  Why would Netscape 4.08 and IE 5.5 =
work
  and not the rest?  I have the JRE on my system, in fact I have 2 =
versions.

  I'm interested to hear what other Webmin users experience with various
  browsers is.

  Thank you in advance.

  Michael Chinn
