Well, you may store as for webmin user password that are encrypted in
/miniserv.users
Also we may apply MD5 format.
Thanks for kindly collaboration!

There isn't really any way to avoid storing the password, as it needs
to be sent in plain-text to the remote webmin server. Even if it was
encrypted, the decryption key would have to be somewhere and so there
wouldn't be any real gain in security .. One way encryption (of the
kind used in /etc/shadow) is not possible.

About Webmin Server

[Daniele G. <dgi...@sy...>]

Hi!
I'm searching about connections between Webmin servers: I have
registered a new
server and set "Login via Webmin with username" adding user and
password.
Problem is that user and password are saved no encrypted on the file
"etc/servers/1012381728.serv"
and this of course is a security problem: how can I avoid the password
to be written
not encrypted ?
One more information: I have set to use SSL.
Thanks in advance!

That could be a bit user-unfriendly though, as any new user that you create
would not be able to do anything in a new module.. Maybe cloning and group
access control could be used to get the same effect.

That sounds like a good feature .. I will add it to the next release of webmin.

That isn't a bug - the 2>&1 option redirects STDERR to STDOUT, so that
the perl ` operator can capture all the output from the rpm command, which
is what it wants to do.

That is OK I think .. it tries to gunzip the file afterwards in case it
is an .rpm.gz , and if that fails displays an error to the user. Are you
having some problem with this when installing a particular package?

bug

[PERA C. <cp...@cy...>]

Hi,
I have got a problem with install package functionalities.
In fact, the cgi file "install_pack.cgi" in software module
doesn't detect my rpm archive as an install package ...
It seems function "is_package" in "rpm-lib.pl" is correct.
(even if it works only on english error messages sent by
rpm command).

But I am not sure code in install_pack.cgi is correct .

I can read (in install_pack.cgi) the following 'if' statement :
        
if (!&is_package($pfile)){
 ### code for unpack rpm ###

}

but with this condition, any jpeg files or others are packages and all
rpm are not recognised as rpm packages ...

has Someone noticed that ???

thanks in advance.

on my webmin (version 0.92) on a linux redhat 7.2 and GNU bash, version

in the is_package function, there is an incorrect indirection :

some bind8 module questions

[Frank A. <fa...@en...>]

hello!

I'm planning to use the BIND8 module for giving away access to customers
to their own zone files.

There are a lot of very good features configurable in that module, but
currently i'm still missing some to make above secure.

- The option "Restrict zone files to directory" doesn't seem to have any
  effect if defined.
- It would be nice if one can disable editing of name server (NS)
  entries and SOA settings.
  These are things that a customer shouldn't change for himself.

And, as global request... is it possible to set module configuration for
newly created users to the minimum possible rights (e.g. all to "no") ?
I don't see any reason, why a new user should have "can edit module
configuration" on "yes" after creation - could cause security problems
if one does create a new user and does forget to edit the user specific
module configuration.


And, as last feature request for today, one question:

Is it possible, that a user can be configured to be able to edit all
zone files that are located in one directory?

For example, i have a dns server with about 40000 domains in it. So i
managed the zone files in different directories depending on the
customer name.
So, i have /named/primary/tchibo as directory where the files for tchibo.de,
tchibo.at, tchibo.ch etc. are located.
Now i want to create a user 'tchibo' that should be able to edit all
zone files located in the mentioned directory, even if there will be
more domains added in the future, but no access to any other files in
any other directory, neither read nor write access.
Currently i thought, that "Restrict zone files to directory" was the
desired option, but as mentioned above, that doesn't seem to work.

Well, awaiting a lot of useful discussion on that :))

Re: Cluster-useradmin

[<Rob...@co...>]

I agree about the limitation that is currently on the tool.  But might it
be a good idea to flag if the UID/GID are different so that the use knows
of this.  Also would it be too hard to have the tool identify the next
available UID on the sourcing system for the user.  On the HP systems we
have the next uid available automatically is listed in the field and you
can change it if you want.

The Synchronize option will create users that exist on one server but are
missing on another, and will always use the same UID as the 'source'
server.
It will not bring existing users into sync though, such as by fixing up
mismatches like UID or real name.

Well - i didn't follow the complete thread yet, but i think it would be
better if the UID and GID could be synced. There are some cases where
you need them to be identical on all systems, for example if you use
NFS.

bind 8 / tmpl_include

[Marcos R. <pu...@ns...>]

could tmpl_include be included in the acl's per user????

different clients have different templates for their zones!... (if not.. I
think I should clone bind8... am I right?)

thanks.

Marcos

Re: tough question - good luck :)

[Marcos R. <pu...@ns...>]

lets' see if I understand correctly:

the clone feature will do a symlink whith the original module... but will
have different config/acl files (in /etc/webmin/module-clone and
/etc/webmin/module)...

in the other hand... if a modification is "hardcore" in the perl of the
module itself, the best way is to copy it (something like cd
/pathtowebmin/ ; cp -a module mymodule ) and then change
/paththowebmin/mymodule/module.info.

cheers!

Have a look in the module.info file in the module directory.  After 
copying the module directory to a new dir name (i.e. apache becomes 
myapache), modify the module.info to contain a new name (Apache becomes 
MyApache, for instance).

I think that will do it.  From now on, you can update Apache alongside 
the rest of Webmin, and your MyApache module will remain the same.

Do you have usernames and passwords set for those servers? The cluster modules
can only manage servers that have the 'Link type' set to 'Login via Webmin with
username' as they need to login to webmin on the other servers in order
to add users and so on ..
