Hi Bill,

The 3.53 version of Virtualmin changed the way users were counted, as
the old method was rather slow - it involved a call to list_domain_users
for each domain, which collected a lot more information than was needed.

But it is a bug if they don't return the same counts. What kind of directory
structure are you using for your users there?
