[webmin-l] problem with "ldap user and group" and Samba3

[Damien T. <dam...@le...>]

hello world!

i upgrade my server with:
webmin 2.40
openldap 2-2.2.23-6
samba 3.0.13-1.1
linux Suse pro 9.3

i manage my ldap user with webmin but when i want to add a user, i have 
the following error:

Failed to save user : Failed to add user to LDAP database : object class 
'sambaSamAccount' requires attribute 'sambaSID'

[webmin-l] FYI on Quotas

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

Seems that the quota bug in Webmin affected CentOS 3.x (RHEL 3) 
machines. The errors seemed to occur 'after' altering one quota through 
Disk Quotas on Webmin.

The new release fixed that. Anyone having oddities or on these systems 
and using quotas should do the update. All the group settings 
disappeared in Webmin, but must have somehow still been active on the 
system, even though repquota didn't show any group settings. Still, I 
had groups which were shut down due to quota issues in spite of the 
users being set to unlimited. I did have to rebuild the quota files 
after the upgrade before things were back to normal.

Best,
John Hinton

RE: [webmin-l] Shorewall module

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

Thanks for the info .. I will update Webmin in the next release to
support this new format. Let me know if you notice if the format of any
of the other config files has changed..

Hi Matt,
There is no way to change that colour in the MSC theme unfortunately..
The page background is really under the control of the theme anyway, so
if you did want to alter it you should create your own theme.

[webmin-l] designing new webmin modules {Scanned}

[Matt L. <we...@ma...>]

Hi,
I have jsut started writing a new webmin module, and cant find a way to 
change the colour of the table produced after calling the &header funtion.
after the header funtion outputs its last line it sets the background to 
white (#ffffff) which causes a thick white border around all my output :(
The last line output from the &header function apears to be :

</tr></table></td></tr></table><table border=0 width=95% align=center cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0><tr><td bgcolor=#ffffff>
<table border=0 width=95% align=center cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0><tr><td>

but i want to be able to change the bgcolor to something else, is there 
a way to do this? or is this a quirk of the MSC theme?

Thanks

RE: [webmin-l] Shorewall module

[Steve P. <sys...@nw...>]

HI Jamie,

The change I've noticed so far is in the 'Zones Setup'.

Shorewall 2: ZoneID	Display Name	Description
		   WAN	 WAN			Link ti I'net

Shorewall 3: Zone		Type		Options	In Options
Out Options
		 WAN		ipv4


Basically, the ZoneID is now also the Display Name, plus there's a list =
of
other options. I've included the default 'zones' file from 3.0.2

Interfaces and hosts seems the same, haven't dug much deeper as I can't
select a zone for rules or policies!


Cheers,

Steve P.

Hi Jerry,
The best method would be to install from emerge, assuming that Gentoo has updated the version in their repository to 1.250. Failing that, the tar.gz package from www.webmin.com is the second-best option..

You'll need a web browser with java and javascript according to the 
webex site.  You can test your browser at https://my.webex.com/join.php#

A webinar is a seminar held on the web.  You watch demos or what have 
you and ask questions of the moderator/host either via text chat or

change your firewall rules to simply drop them and not log them. There
are some packets such as netbios that aren't worth logging and you could
add port 53 to that category.

Hi,

Just got this as we finally have the mail back up. THanks for the 
update and the heads up. We've been chasing what I thought was a 
DOS here but now I see we've been more likely exploited. Is there 
any information out as to getting rid of what ails our machines now? 
We have huge (for this little shop) UDP traffic consisting of named 
process requests that is just killing the message log with denied 
requests. 

thanks,
Dan

Hi everyone,

Webmin version 1.250 is now available for download from
http://www.webmin.com/ and mirror sites. This release includes
the following changes :

 - Fixed a denial of service attack and possible remotely exploitable
   security hole caused by a bug in Perl.
 - Multiple DNS records and Cron jobs can now be deleted at once
   in their respective modules. 
 - Apache define variables are automatically detected on Redhat,
   SuSE and Mandrake Linux. 
 - The Dovecot module now supports the config format used by
   version 1.0. 
 - The File Manager module can search for files by their content,
   and preview images. 
 - Added options to the Sendmail module for controlling the order
   in which the mail queue is processes and flushed.
 - A bunch of other bugfixes and small changes.

Because of the security hole in older versions of Webmin, I would 
strongly
recommend upgrading to 1.250. Because this is a Perl internal 
problem
it may not effect all operating systems and Perl releases, but you 
can't
be too careful!

Also available is Usermin 1.180, which includes the following 
changes :

 - Fixed the same security hole as in Webmin. 
 - The File Manager module can search for files by their content,
   and preview images. 
 - The Mail Forwarding module allows a From: address for 
autoreplies
   to be entered in 'simple' mode.

As always, please send me any bug reports or feature suggestions 
that
you might have.

 - Jamie

Re: [webmin-l] Cron job

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

Ah, that would be the cause of the problem..

Ubuntu is a variant of Debian, right? In that case, assuming that you
installed the package from www.webmin.com, it should have used
/var/spool/cron/crontabs by default for the cron files directory.

Or perhaps the OS wasn't detected properly at install time .. if you go
to the Webmin main menu, that OS and version does it display at the
bottom of the page?

Re: [webmin-l] Private DNS server

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

Hi Steve,
You can move a zone in Webmin by clicking on it, and then on the Edit Zone Options icon. At the bottom of the page that appears is a buton for moving the zone into a view ..

Jamie, 

Thanks, 

Thank goodness for plain text warning messages that actually say what the
problem is!!

I kinda figured that would be the answer but how do you "move" zones once they
are created, especially the default zones, to views, and eliminate them from the
non-view schema using Webmin? Or should I just edit the named.conf file to get
things in order and go from there?

Sorry to be a bother, and thank you for your precious time in all respects.
