[webmin-l] Webmin under inetd - error: Socket::unpack_sockaddr_in, length is 0, should be 16 . .

[Robert <rob...@ho...>]

When I run webmin as an inetd task, I get scores of the following lines in
/var/log/webmin/miniserv.error

Bad arg length for Socket::unpack_sockaddr_in, length is 0, should be 16 at
/opt/webmin/miniserv.pl line 671.

My /var/log/secure is full of:

Webmin seems to run very slowly from my web browser.

I'm running slackware 9.0 and webmin 1.100

I've done all the recommended things for running webmin as an inetd service

Here is my entry in /etc/inetd.conf:
webmin  stream tcp nowait root /opt/webmin/miniserv.pl miniserv.pl
/etc/webmin/miniserv.conf

Relevant entry in /etc/services
webmin        10000/tcp    #Webmin

Is this anything I should worry about and is there an easy fix?
