Hi Jamie,

I think I have finally figured out the cause of all my recent user
creation problems.  I tried creating a new user with the Samba Login bit
off and the user got home dir got created fine with files in their home
directory, no cyrus authentication error, and the post user creation
script ran fine.  Looks like a problem with my Samba setup - the
objectclasses have changed in my LDAP config so there might be the
problem with some of my LDAP groups imported from the old LDAP setup. 
Not sure why I was having all the errors and issues seemingly unrelated
to Samba though?

That's odd, because I just tested this myself with Webmin 1.263, and it worked
fine. I presume you have the 'Copy files into new home directories from' option
on the Module Config page set to /etc/skel ?

[webmin-l] LDAP Users Module - /etc/skel contents not copied

[Murray T. <mtr...@ce...>]

Hi Jamie,

Another problem I have come across using 1.263.  When I create an LDAP
user the files/dirs in /etc/skel are not copied to their home
directory.  I have tried both putting /etc/skel in the LDAP Users module
or reading the setting from the Users & Groups module and it fails in
both cases.  If I create a local Unix user using the Users and Groups
module it works fine.

I'm sure some of it has to do with design decisions Mischa made for 
Postfix Admin.   I (selfishly and otherwise) think compatibility is a 
good idea... let me know if there's anything I can help with.  It would 
be great not to have to send our domain owners to one interface for mail 
and another for web stuff.  (Since it's such a minority entertainment, 
note I'm not pushing the Majordomo 2 front...!)

Thanks for all the info.. It would certainly be possible to support
Postfix+MySQL in Virtualmin, but it will take a while before it gets done,
as it looks fairly complex!

Re: [webmin-l] Connection refused

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

Hi,
There are two things you shoud check :
1) Make sure that the Webmin server process is running, by running /etc/w=
ebmin/start .
2) Make sure there is no firewall on your system blocking port 10000.

Since the path to sendmail is set in "Global Majordomo options", it is
safe for webmin to assume sendmail is the MTA and set the list members'
file's permissions accordingly.

Yes.

Since we're already running that way using Postfix Admin, I'll gladly 
forward you the MySQL schemas and Postfix main.cf entries.

There is actually a setting on the Module Config page of the Majordomo
module to control the default permissions on those files. Unfortunately some
mail servers require them to be group-writable, while others cannot handle it!
That's why I made the permissions user editable..

Hi Roger,
Are you thinking of support in Virtualmin for Postfix mailboxes stored in
a MySQL database, sort of like how it supports LDAP and vpopmail users?
I'm not familiar with Postfix-MySQL integration, but I suppose it would
be possible..

[webmin-l] Majordomo in wembin 1.260

[Nigel H. <nj...@ba...>]

When creating a new mailing list, the subcriber's file (the file
containing the email addresses of all the subscribers) is created as mode
664. This causes sendmail to complain, stating that it won't use it
because the file is group-write-enabled.

It would be better if the file were to be created 644.

OH!! Gee... wouldn't you know it.. the only server I looked on didn't 
have the pull-down of mirrors.. the rest do. Odd as they are all on the 
same version. I must have something 'stuck' (wouldn't surprise me on 
that one installation) which didn't allow the update to the 
download/proxy module.

I guess when you say 'selecting', one selects from those available when 
you go onto the Webmin site and choose a mirror to download Webmin? It 
sort of sounded like there was going to be a selection pulldown or 
something in the module.

And if I understand this right, this will cause Webmin to attempt to use 
that selected mirror and if unavailable it will try another one?

Also, I see beside default, UNC? Does this mean University of North 
Carolina? If so, that would be very close, but they do run slow many 
times. The price for being one of the first in the world, to serve to 
the world.

Thanks,
John Hinton

Would you consider implementing a scheme similar to (or for our purpose,

Hi John,
This download is probably slow because Webmin is using the default
sourceforge
mirror site, osdn.dl.sourceforge.net . You can configure it to use a faster
mirror
in future by going to the Webmin Configuration module, clicking on Proxy
Servers and
Downloads, and selecting a closer mirror from the 'Preferred OSDN mirror for
downloads'
menu.

[webmin-l] Slow Update Downloads

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

I'm really not trying to complain here, but just inform...

Seems like about one third of the times I do an upgrade, it either bombs 
out with no data transferred or comes in painfully slow.

At present, after about 10 minutes I have this on my screen as it creeps 
along

Downloading 
http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin-1.260-1.noarch.rpm 
(9866118 bytes) ..
     Received 1024 bytes (0 %)
     Received 857088 bytes (8 %)
     Received 987136 bytes (10 %)
     Received 1759232 bytes (17 %)

This looks like an overload on sourceforge to me. I've heard they have 
been having some growing pains.

Again, not to complain but just to inform.

Re: [webmin-l] Virtualmin + Dovecot

With 3000+ users already using use...@do... as their login 
(instead of username.domain) we would rather try and keep it like that.

Is there any way to have dovecot do some kind of re-write on the 
username the user enters when doing IMAP? Kind of like a Postfix virtual

Re: [webmin-l] Virtualmin + Dovecot

[Hamid H. <ha...@mo...>]

Hi,

I am using virtualmin with Dovecot. What do you mean that how to use 
Dovecot with Virtualmin ?!
Normally it is working cause the Virtualmin users are always normal unix 
users and as Dovecot point of view there is no diffrence between 
Virtualmin users and normal Unix users. Therefor if you install the 
Dovecot on your unix machine it can deal with the user's mailbox ( or 
maildir depend on your MTA configuration ) like any other users.
As an example if you have a domain like example.com in your virtualmin 
then the Mailboxes under this domain will have a unix user like this :

in...@ex... ---> info.example      ( This style can change in 
virtualmin it self )

so when you want to connect to the pop3 or imap server your username 
will be info.example with the password and you will be able to check 
your email from Dovecot or any other standard POP3 servers.
