I believe you can also accomplish what you're requesting (and a LOT
more) using the existing functionality by editing Module Access Control
for your new client's webmin user account.  Simply click on "Webmin
Users" from the main screen, find the webmin user account for your new
client, and select the "Users and Groups" module on the right.  The
option at the top "Unix users who can be edited" allows you to specify a
range of UIDs.  You can use this to block out the system users, and
there is a similar option further down for groups.
