[webmin-l] Adding redirect on index page.

[Dave . <dav...@ho...>]

When a user logs in on usermin is it possible to add a link (like those of 
the modules) to the main index page that when clicked redirects a user to 
another web address. Basically adding an html link to the main page that 
looks like a module link.

Re: [webmin-l] Scheduled Cron Jobs / Reboot

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

Try clicking on the Module Config link and changing 'Supports
Vixie-Cron extensions?' to Yes. It is possible that Webmin detected
your Debian version incorrectly, and used some incorrect settings
by default.

Usually those special @hours/daily/reboot time specifications
only appear if Webmin detects that your version of Cron supports
them. Which OS are you running there, and which version? Some
older operating systems don't use vixie-cron, and thus don't allow
@ time specs.

Usually those special @hours/daily/reboot time specifications
only appear if Webmin detects that your version of Cron supports
them. Which OS are you running there, and which version? Some
older operating systems don't use vixie-cron, and thus don't allow
@ time specs.

Hmm.. it works OK on my systems :-)
 
If you are logged in as root and run the command :

echo yourpassword | su regularuser -c 'sudo -l -S'

what does it output?

[webmin-l] Scheduled Cron Jobs / Reboot

[Neal M. <Ne...@mo...>]

Jamie:

I'm not seeing a "reboot" option on the scheduled cron jobs screen.
Jobs in /etc/cron.d with @reboot show up in my list, but appear as if no
hours/minutes/etc are picked.

Is it there and I'm just not seeing it?


Thanks,

Ok .. but when you tried logging into Webmin itself, was it with the

Did you try logging in as a user who can sudo to root? That should be
supported on Ubunutu when using this latest package ..

Hi Jamie.  Sorry I didn't try this earlier (I was busy busy).

I don't know what I'm missing, but the new deb package still asks for 
root password on Ubuntu...

I will uninstall this version so I can do further tests...

Again, thanks for your nice software!

I realize that the degree of on-topic-ness for this subject on
webadmin-list is minimal at best, but what was the workaround / fix
you implemented to address this issue?  I currently have all of my
ACLs in slapd.conf commented-out until I can spend some time on it,
which is of course, uncomfortable to say the least.

You need to go to the Postfix module, click on Virtual Domains,
and enter hash:/etc/postfix/virtual into the 'Domain mapping lookup
tables' field.

There is more documentation at http://www.swelltech.com/support/virtual-servers/index.html

[webmin-l] New beta version of Virtualmin GPL available

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

Hi Virtualmin users,

I have finally gotten around to creating an update to the free version of
Virtualmin, which adds a bunch of new features and fixes many bugs. This new
release actually merges the code base between the commercial Pro version and
the GPL, which will make the development of both much faster in future.

You can get the new version from :
http://download.webmin.com/download/virtualmin/virtual-server-3.182.gpl.tar.gz

A complete list of changes is at :
http://www.webmin.com/vchanges-3.182.gpl.html

This new version should be considered beta quality, so I'd welcome any
feedback on bugs on features that have gone missing. Thanks!

That is quite a good idea, and I have just added it to the module. However
I don't actually run a Cyrus IMAP server myself, so I can't fully test it!
But you can, by downloading the module from :

Let me know how it goes.

Yes - just go to the Webmin Users module, and click on Global ACl next to the
user's login. On the form that appears you can restrict which directories he
can see in the file chooser.

[webmin-l] Upload/Download Question

[Tommy <pr...@re...>]

So I've modified the upload/download options for a particular user so that they can
upload/download to/from a specific folder on the system.

This is intended as a quasi-replacement for what was once a locked down FTP option.

In any event, my question is this...

Even with upload/dowload restrictions in place, the user can still go all over the system
looking at directory structure/other domains, etc.

Is there any way to limit the "browse" upload view to the directory specified in the
module configuration?

thnx.

Makes sense - thanks.

That would be quite tricky, as for Webmin to be able to edit=20
the config file it would need to 'undo' the M4 substitions, which
is near impossible.

Solaris uses M4 in its syslog.conf file, but to handle this Webmin
runs the file through M4 the first time you open the module, to
expand all M4 directives. I could do this for Mon as well, but it
would really defeat the purpose of using M4 in the first place, and
would probably annoy users who want to save their M4 directives!

So basically, Mon+M4 is incompatible with Webmin :-(
