Webmin determines which actions are started at boot by looking at the symlinks
from /etc/rcX.d to the actions' scripts in /etc/init.d . The X in /etc/rcX.d is
the system's bootup runlevel, which is generally 3 or 5. You can see the runlevel
by looking at the id: line in /etc/inittab ... I suspect that this line may contain
something odd on your system.

[webmin-l] CentOS 4.3 Machine

[John H. <web...@ew...>]

I have one CentOS 4.3 machine of several which for some reason can't 
seem to see the state of services in the 'Bootup and Shutdown' area. 
Everything shows as No under Start at boot column. Also, in other areas 
like where you can set Webmin to start at boot, it is also listed as No, 
even though in fact during a reboot, the service is started.

I've compared the module config areas between systems and simply can't 
find anything that's different. Any ideas about this one?

Thanks,
John Hinton

You should be able to just click on them in Virtualmin and delete them.
I recommend always deleting databases associated with domains through
Virtualmin, rather than using the MySQL module or doing it manually.

Make sure that Webmin is actually reading you access.conf file..
You can do this by clicking on the Module Config link, and setting
the 'Path to access.conf' option to the full path to that file, like
/usr/local/apache/conf/access.conf .

[webmin-l] [1.260] Virtual Apache servers

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

I have this at the end of my access.conf file:

include "/usr/local/apache/conf/virtualsites/*.conf"

But when I create a new virtual site, Webmin complains like this:

"Failed to create virtual server : The new virtual server was added to /usr/local/apache/conf/virtualsites/mysite.se.conf, but this file is not used by Apache. Check the module configuration and make sure the 'File or directory to add virtual servers to' is correct."

Hi Len,
Someone else brought up this exact issue a few days ago. So in the next
releases of Webmin and Usermin I will add a preferences option for the date
format, so you can select d/m/y, m/d/y or even y/m/d.

[webmin-l] Read Mail Module - index.cgi Date Format?

I just upgraded usermin from 1.180 to 1.200 and noticed that the date format listed in the mailbox index listing is now in a non-American format (aka European Format, aka Military Format, aka Day/Month/Year)... is there a new preference setting that can be used to control this behaviour?  I (and my fellow users) prefer to use the "American" format (Month/Day/Year), if possible.

For the time being, I've modified boxes-lib-func.pl::simplify_date()'s sprintf() line to format "%m/%d/%Y"... this will keep us happy for now, but if there's a user preference, that'd be ideal.  I checked out the module preferences and default user preferences but could not find one listed that seemed appropriate.

This can happen if you have nscd running on your system, which caches
user and group information. To stop it, go to the Bootup and Shutdown
module, select the nscd service, and click the button to stop it and
disable it at boot.
