[webmin-l] SSL for custom port

[Raj K. <ra...@gm...>]

Hi friends,
I use webmin and virtualmin to host many domains in VPS with Centos 7 OS.
Apache Server

www.example1.com uses default ports (80 and 443)
www.example2.com is served at VPS_IP:3001

Both domains have LetsEncrypt SSL successfully installed.

Problem:
example1.com is properly resolving to https://example1.com

example2.com is resolving to http://example2.com

Please advice what to do in Apache Server/Webmin/Virtualmin in order to get
example2.com resolved to https


Thank you
Regards
Raj

I'm having trouble re-producing this. Which FTP server are you connecting
to there?

I know it's not a yes or no answer, but it works when I enter the 
password manually from an interactive prompt.

Can you confirm that it's specifically the $ character that causes problems?

Re: [webmin-l] Usermin can't login on macOS - takes forever to login

[Gilles C. <gil...@ec...>]

Hi,

This is a follow-up from my previous message: 
I finally found out how to login with Usermin on macOS (usermin 1.791 on macOS 10.14.6, perl 5.28 with Authen::PAM from macports)

It took me some time to debug this but modifying "miniserv.pl" by commenting out the the $pamh->pam_authenticate(); at line 145, works!

# check if the PAM authentication can be used by opening a
# PAM handle
...
$pam_username = "test";
$pam_password = "test";
			
#$pamh->pam_authenticate();  # <========= Login WORKS when not used
$use_pam = 1; # HACK set use_pam on macOS to allow login, since pam a

If you don't comment out the line (testing $pamh->pam_authenticate() ) then the login will spin forever (tried on Firefox 72 and Safari).

Here's my /etc/pam.d/usermin which works too:

# login: auth account password session
auth			sufficient		pam_opendirectory.so try_first_pass
auth			required		pam_deny.so
account		required		pam_permit.so
password		required		pam_deny.so
session		required		pam_permit.so

Anyone had this issue on Linux ?

Cheers,

Gilles

It's a regular un-encrypted FTP-server.

Is it an FTPS server that you're testing, or a regular un-encrypted FTP server?

I seems like a bug but just to test, if using

instead of

$

..helps? :)

[webmin-l] FTP monitor with $ in password string

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

I needed to add an FTP-type monitor to Webmin today, which I haven't 
played with before.

I'm, however, running into somewhat of a snag. The password contains a 
$, which seems to fubar the check.

If I use the same credentials from CLI, it works, but not in Webmin.

*Webmin version* 1.940
*Virtualmin version* 6.08

I have installed remi php 7.4; installed in /etc/opt/remi/php74

I have added the php.ini location in the php module's configuration. 
Able to edit the php.ini values through the php module.

Yet, when I run the configuration check it does not find the php 7.4
version. What do I need to check or do to get this working

Thank you,

Re: [webmin-l] Question about ssl configuration

[<sou...@ro...>]

Dimos, make your proxy (Nginx) redirect to *https* version of the website.
Webmin should only run in SSL mode.

William, make sure that BIND module in Webmin knows about your current
configuration. You can simply copy old `/etc/webmin/bind8` folder to new
install.

[webmin-l] DNS Module question

[William P. <wi...@cn...>]

 Set up Webmin on Debian Buster. Copied over the bind config from an old
Debian Jessy. Thought the bind module in Webmin would recognize the zones
and configuration, but it doesn't appear to. DNS info is working fine,
domains are resolving fine for websites. I'm curious why the Bind module
isn't seeing any of the imported configuration, and if I were to try to set
something up through the module if it would cause problem with the imported
configuration?

Any ideas

Virtualmin is not for "managing server", Virtualmin is for managing
multi-user, multi-instance hosting environment.

They are related, but their intended audience and usage pattern are way more
different, than just their names.

[webmin-l] migrate virtual server

In the past I always migrated manually, copying everything over, setting
up cron jobs again etc.  I decided to try the migrate server and it
worked great.  The only thing I had to do was to check the use php-fpm

Thank guys for your hard work.  I need to see if I can scrap up a few
quid to send your way.

Re: [webmin-l] Let's Encrypt error message acme

I can kick this can down the road a bit because I can copy the certs
from the old server to the new server.  However, I think this issue
should be near or at the top of the list of things to do because many
thousands, millions, of Virtualmin users are facing not being able to
renew their ssl certs.  Let's Encrypt is already now at this time
blocking renewals.
