There is actually a configurable setting that tells webmin whether to 
make new list files group readable or not..  Just click on Module 
Config on the main page of the Majordomo module.

Permissions on Majordomo module

[Tony S. <tsh...@st...>]

I've got a situation where the files being written by the majordomo module
are coming out wrong.

Apparently the files need to NOT be group writable.  The default perms
being given to the files in /usr/local/majordomo-xxx/lists have group
writability by default if created via webmin.  Can this be adjusted?  I'm
not in a position to where I can spend a lot of time on this right now,
but it's going to be a major problem later on....I'm sure more than just I
have problems with it.  I had the lastest version available as of Feb 1,
but haven't upgraded since.

Re: Try out the new default webmin theme

[Marcos R. <ma...@al...>]

strange thing....

when I have a "drop down selector" (like in the edit alias for sendmail),
the selector will cover the items in the dropdown menu for the wembin
theme... (in my case, the majordomo list manager, mysql database server
and the next one get "covered" with the selectors.. --ie you can see
"Email address" (from alias to) and None.. and I could select others)

I'm trying the theme in a modified RH 7.2 (with freeVsd/OpenVDS), webmin
1.070, and in the client side I'm in my wife's windows 98 second edition
with IE 5.50.4807.2300 (will see when I can check it with netscape in the
same client... and in my machine I use a simple linux with no gui.. then I
change the theme in webmin... if found the MSC theme impossible to use
under lynx)


Cheers!
Marcos

ps: as long as we have that dropdown menu... perhaps would be interesting
to investigate the posibility of having submenus... in other words...
instead of "jumping" to servers/sendmail... be able to jump to
servers/sendamil/aliases ;)

Make sure your webserver is configured to return a MIME type like 
application/octet-stream for .wbm files. Currently it seems to be 
returning text/plain, which may cause some browsers or proxies to do 
text newline conversions that corrupt the file.

Try out the new default webmin theme

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

Hi all,

John Smith of MSC software has updating the current default Webmin 
theme to make use of drop-down category menus for jumping directly 
from one module to another without having to return to the main menu.
I plan to make this the default theme in the next release, but since 
this is new design makes use of some advanced browser features I 
though that list members may want to try it out first to comment on 
it. The new theme can be downloaded from :

http://www.webmin.com/download/modules/msctheme-enhanced.wbt.gz

As always, any feedback or bug reports are welcome.

The usermin file manager is identical to the webmin file manager, and so
it's source can be found in the file/ subdirectory of webmin if you want
it. The source for the SSH/Telnet module is not include though, as the
applet that it uses was written by other people .. However, it may be on
their website (liked to below the telnet window).

Usermin file manager Java source?

[Chris H. <ha...@de...>]

Hi,

I'm running Debian on a couple of server where I also use webmin/usermin.  I
would like to switch to using webmin/usermin .debs from Debian so that I can
test the packages in a production environment.  However, I need the file
manager module for usermin, which is not currently available in unstable.  I
talked to the maintainer Jaldhar H, Vyas about this module, who explained
that he had to remove it because the source is not available. =20

So, is the Java source for the file manager (and ssh?) available from
somewhere?

Thanks,
Chris

Support for ThizLinux in webmin; zh_CN translation update

[Anthony F. <an...@th...>]

Dear all,

Attached is a patch for webmin to recognize ThizLinux, an RPM-based
GNU/Linux distribution based in Hong Kong.  :-)

Another patch (sent separately as it is over 100 KB) is an update of
zh_CN translation, courtesy of ThizLinux Laboratory Ltd. and
professional translator Stephanie Li.

Cheers,

Anthony

I discovered the following patch was necessary to get the passdelay feature
working while upgrading to the 1.070 version of webmin. <br>
<br>
The miniserv.pl program was closing the socket on my client browser everytime
I entered a bad password for my test user. I found that the validate_user
method returned 0 which was sent to the parent process in a double-quoted
string <br>
"delay $user $address $ok" which was received as "delay admin ip.addr.ess
". &nbsp;The $ok value of zero of course disappeared when cast to a string.<br>
<br>
I have not tried this option in earlier releases so this problem may have

Example:-When i see a database from MySQL module, The name of the =
Database is displayed very small.
Is there any way to diplay it correctly on Mozilla Or Netscape.

I can see why a problem would happen - the .cgi file will try to 
'require' the .pl file, expecting it to be normal Perl source. However 
if it is actually a compiled binary, the require will of course fail!

You should only compile the .cgi files which are run directly, instead 
of any .pl files that get called indirectly from a .cgi program.

Re: webmin via proxy module of apache?

You should have a:
ProxyPassReverse /webmin/ https://localhost:10000/
as well. It works for me if I don't use the alias webmin but redirect everything to 10000 on the localhost.

strange error

[paul.reilly <pau...@di...>]

Hi Folks,

I have a problem regarding Webmin modules that has been compiled using 
perlcc. 

I have written a  module that consists of about 15 .cgi and 4 .pl (lib) 
files. 

If I compile the .cgi files and try to use them via Webmin, they work 
perfectly. 

However, if I compile the .pl files they fail.
Typical error: 

Missing Content-Type Header : Unrecognized character \x7F at ./library.pl 
line 1.
Compilation failed in require at index.cgi line 6. 


Has anyone else encountered this problem ?? 

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Paul.

Is there ant way to acheive this ?

I mean,  i want to create a new category called "arun".Under this =

What are the files should i edit?i have modified module.info only.I dont =

Please if you have any ideas ,send it to me..

webmin via proxy module of apache?

[Sandro D. <san...@ti...>]

Has anybody tried using webmin via proxypass module of apache. The advantage
should be to leave only one port open to the world (I did this for ntop, and
it almost works...;-).

Whis are the possible disadventages? (eg.: no control over IP)

I thought to do something like:

ProxyPass /webmin/ https://localhost:10000/
RewriteEngine On
RewriteLog "/tmp/webmin.log"
RewriteLogLevel 9
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} localhost/webmin
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/webmin
RewriteRule "^/(.*)$" https://localhost/webmin/$1 [L,P] 

(this should only work from localhost, thought...). 
I get the message:

  You don't have permission to access /webmin/ on this server.

Thanks in advance

I was joking re converting all of Webmin to xml. It would be nice and
futureproof, but would be a somewhat intense project. :) I'll tidy-up
the xhtml conversions I've done so far (web-lib and index) and post them
through.

My interest in Webmin is in creating an admin tool for some of my
clients. As I said earlier, I've got a treasurechest of xsl, css and
javascript files that create a really nice GUI - and I'd like to get
Webmin to work with them. So if the Webmin source outputted valid xhtml
- the number of diffs I'd have to maintain to get webmin to work with my
libraries would be greatly reduced.

Regards,
Ben

Re: XML output

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

If the changes don't break anything, I'd be happy to include them in 
the main webmin distribution if you send me diff files.. An XHTML 
conversion would be better than changing all the CGIs to output XML, 
as it would be far less drastic. Maybe do a few files and show me what 
you've done so I can consider it and make some suggestions ..

RE: XML output

[Ben N. <ben...@pc...>]

Further to my earlier post - here's some regexps I've been using to make
Webmin valid xhtml. I'm running these regexps on the source code without
many breakages (only 3 or 4 per file).

I'm not sure on the history of this - but I think making Webmin output
valid xhtml would be a good thing. :)

* attributes are enclosed in quotes
* all tags are closed (eg br/ hr/ img/)

Because, once webmin outputs valid xhtml, the entire thing can be parsed
as an xml document, and it's easy to output xml intermixed with the
xhtml. 

You can write an xsl that will ignore all the tr, td, hr and table tags,
and just look for tags which are outputted when $config{'xml'} is true.

I'll post a screenshot of why I'm so keen on webmin->xml (hopefully)
later today.

Regards,
Ben

Regular expression to fix 'wrong' attributes - misses some body tags:

XML output

[Ben N. <ben...@pc...>]

Hi.

I've just played around with webmin in the last hour or so, changing
web-lib and index.cgi, to make webmin output valid xhtml... It seems
that it'd be pretty easy to change some of the modules to output xml,
and then run an xsl stylesheet over the top to convert the xml/xsl to
html. 

(My website is an example of this: http://www.ripcord.co.nz/).

Before I jump in over my head and start cutting and chopping - could I
convert some modules to output sensible xml without forking the code?

If I do my own little fork - What version should I fork? 

Can I convince you all to convert the entire codebase to outputting xml
with serverside xslt processing? ;)

WRT/ XSLT:
  XSL has advantages over other templating engines:
	[a] 	It is a w3c recommendation, uses lots of open standards.
	[b] 	On mozilla 1.2 / ie6 you can send xml and xsl to the
browser 
		separately and the browser will apply the stylesheet.

  And for me personally:
	[a] 	I've got some nice xsl stylesheets sitting here, 
		to create collapsible trees, do xml-rpc via js, 
		browser-side sortable tables, etc.

Regards,
Ben

Sorry for so big delay - sort of personal troubles.

ASPLinux based on RedHat7.3 and have not so big differences, so big part

I mail it to your personal email, it's to big for list.
