Re: [webmin-l] Hooking up two Webmins behind firewalls

[Joaquim H. <jo...@we...>]

Hello!

OK; so if I move it to 8080, we're talking 8080 + 8081-8180?

And for #2, they're both behind firewalls, but not the same firewall.

This is for running Webmin on a remote site (the "node"), reporting/communi=
cating with our webmin ("central).

The port Webmin uses for inter-system communication is always the one that
you login to it on, which is typically 10000. So you would have to allow tr=
affic
on port 10000 to the node through the firewall.

Also, if you want to use 'fast RPC' mode, you should also open ports 10001-=
10100.

So are both node and central behind the firewall? If so, it wouldn't even
come into play ..
