RE: [webmin-l] Webmin Servers, Broadcast/scan

[Neal M. <Ne...@mo...>]

Jamie:

I was testing the UDP broadcast on two servers on the same network
segment - there are neither switches nor firewalls between.  Also, when
I put the UDP port back to 10000 on both they find each other without
problem.

On the multihomed/duplicates issue, Webmin finds the server twice, with
the same name.  When you edit the entries they are entirely the same.
It appears to be finding the webmin name versus the host name; not an
FQDN - so it doesn't look like there's a reverse lookup involved. =20

Again, not a big issue, just thought you'd want to know in case you find
yourself looking for something to do!  (I doubt that happens often).


All the best,

Neal

Are you sure it isn't being blocked by a firewall? And that both the
sending a receiving systems are using the same port?

That is a tough one to solve, as presumably the different IPs won't
resolve
to the same hostname..
