Date/Time Selection in Filesystem Backup, Cron, Modules

[Les B. <le...@le...>]

Jamie, I just used the Filesystem Backup module to schedule a tape backup
on one of my systems. When setting up the schedule, the Minutes, Hours and
Days selections have multiple listboxes (five for the minutes). The problem
is that if you accidentally click in the wrong listbox, you wind up with an
(apparently) undeletable selection. The Cron module exhibits similar
behaviour.

I say apparently, because after a few minutes of tinkering I realized that
using the Ctrl key while mouse-clicking on the entry will unselect it -
prior to this I was reduced to editing the contents of /etc/webmin/fdsump.
Perhaps a small note ("use Ctrl key for multiple selections") on the page
might eliminate some confusion?

Best,
