Hi Ryan, You need to either enter a password into the 'Password for SSH account' field, or setup SSH so that the root user can login to the other system without needing a password. Generally the first option is easier .. - Jamie On Sun, 2006-03-12 at 23:35, RYAN M. vAN GINNEKEN wrote: > HAHA that is what i was looking for the outputs i knew webmin would never overlook something like that.

OH but wait there dosent seem to be a password field am i missing some thing here.
