We have a AIX box here, running AIX 5.something  and I don't even see a =
/etc/mnttab file there.
There is a /etc/filesystems file, but it's structure is vastly different =
from a - for example Solaris - /etc/mnttab file.

I have webmin installed on our AIX box, but I admittedly do not do that =
much with it.  Mostly just created for our help desk to be able to reset =
users passwords.

I'd be willing to be a test bed for you, if needed.

Hi Greg,
Last time I checked, /etc/mnttab on AIX had a very odd format ... some =
mounts used @ in the device name, the meaning of which was not particularly=
 clear to me.

It certainly would be possible to support AIX, however it is just =
something I haven't gotten around to yet, as that OS doesn't seem to have =
a particularly large marked share among Webmin users.

Or whatever "standard" is decided upon..  you could make a /etc/webmnt *> =
<particular structure for OS>

Just a thought,

Hi Ed,
Unfortunately, that monitor type is not supported on AIX at the moment. To =
work it needs to be able to get a list of mounted filesystems, and each OS =
seems to store that information in a differnet way (/etc/mtab vs /etc/mntta=
b vs /proc/mounts etc..)
