Not to downplay the usefulness of such a timestamp, but 1) unix timestamps
mean almost nothing to me when *I* look at them and 2) ls -l shows the
modification time in human-readable format... :)

But hey, the field's size is 32 bits, and our favorite time_t is also 32
bits, so I'd endorse it as another valid option (until January, 2038).  I
think it'd be kinda neat to just show the last modification time in Webmin,
though.  While we're on the topic.

Unfortunately, it looks as if the bandwidth usage of this server is 
still wrong. The difference between the bandwidth usage of the parent 
server and the sub-server was and is constantly 17-18 megabytes over the 
last two days, I think that is too much of a coincidence...

[webmin-l] BIND serial number style suggestion

[David D. <da...@en...>]

Can an option be added to the BIND module to use the Unix timestamp as 
the serial number rather than a date based serial number or a running 
number? Sometimes it's useful to see the time a zone was updated.

No .. but this will be possible in the next release.
Normally the modules are determined automatically based on the features

Yes, you are correct there .. virtualmin is designed to simplify things,
which also means less control.

Sorry, I didn't quite say it right in my first post. What I meant to say 
was, the sub-servers were pointing to the web site of their parent 
server with a ServerAlias in httpd.conf, but I didn't create them with 
the Create Alias Server button (now I get an extra VirtualHost with a 
Redirect). I have recreated all of the domains with 'Create Alias 
Server' and the bandwidth usage seems to be right!

Now I have one domain left which is really not an Alias Server. I will 
wait and see if the bandwidth usage for this sub-server is correct too...

Thank you very much,

Patrick

[webmin-l] Read User mail

[Obantec S. <su...@ob...>]

Hi

When i use advance search the first of the links at the bottom says "Return
to user mailbox" and the second "Return to user list"

Problem on 1.240 the First link is
http://example.com:10000/mailboxes/index.cgi?folder=0 which actually takes
you back to the Read User Mail index. second link is same less the ?folder=0

should it not be

http://example.com:10000/mailboxes/list_mail.cgi?user=mdscc&folder=0

Are you sure those extra servers are actually alias domains? You can
tell by clicking on one and looking for the 'Alias of server' field..
Normally alias servers don't even appear on the bandwidth page at all,
although you said that they are being (incorrectly) listed.

thank you, jamie, for the explanation. so there was no need yet to

would it be possible to distinguish somehow the different types of  
users in the webmin user module, e.g. different color? so that we  
would know from the start that changing any settings here in  
virtualmin users is pointless because they are overwritten again?

this was the first time i have used virtualmin. i'm not sure yet if i  
revert back to a standard webmin user. i have just the feeling that  
there is more control available over the individual webmin user than  
over the individual virtualmin user. but again this might be intended  
behavior. anyway, thanks for your reply.

This is normal behaviour actually .. it is best not manually edit users
created by Virtualmin, as it has it's own idea of what modules and
settings they should have, and will over-write manual changes. Because
virtualmin is just a plugin to webmin, it cannot stop you from making
manual changes though.

If you want to do something like grant access to an extra module, the
only way to do this currently is to edit
/etc/webmin/virtual-server/domains/XXX (where XXX is the file for the
domain) and add a line like :

webmin_modules=status

Then edit and re-save the virtual server.

> these are 3 modules more than in my initial setup. can anybody  
> explain this? is my configuration not correct? thanks for any advice.

well, i think that i can answer my questions myself. my guess is that  
the specific webmin user in this case is under control of virtualmin  
virtual server. the general settings of virtualmin override the all  
setting of the webmin user. so when i delete a module in the webmin  
user setup which is controlled by virtualmin it just gets added  
again. and when i add a module in the webmin user setting which is  
not allowed in the general setup of virtualmin it gets deleted.  
therefore, i cannot control these virtualmin controlled webmin user  
individually? i tried to add the System and Server Status module  
through the webmin user setting. but as soon as i change the password  
(as described in my last email) this module disappears again form the  
list of available modules.

if this is intended behavior then i ask myself why are these  
virtualmin controlled webmin users configurable/editable by the  
webmin users module at all when everything is reset to the defaults  
anyway? i still think that i have a missconfiguration here or i don't  
grasp the virtualmin concept at all.

[webmin-l] change password changes available modules for webmin user

[Marc P. <pet...@ma...>]

dear list members

i'm experiencing a funny behavior with the latest version 1.240 of  
webmin on fedora core 3:

i set up a webmin user with the following modules (there are no  
webmin groups):
- Global ACL
- Change Language and Theme
- Change Passwords
- Read User Mail
- Virtualmin Virtual Servers

with the default setting of the Change Password module i always get  
"Failed to change password : Failed to encrypt password" (MD5 perl  
module is installed). so i changed the setting to not having to enter  
the old password.

with this setting password changing seems to work. but as soon as the  
password is changed the webmin user setting gets changed as well. now  
the user has all of a sudden access to more modules than configures  
before:

- Global ACL
- Apache Webserver
- Change Language and Theme
- Change Passwords
- File Manager
- Protected Web Directories
- Read User Mail
- Virtualmin Virtual Servers

these are 3 modules more than in my initial setup. can anybody  
explain this? is my configuration not correct? thanks for any advice.

regards,
marc

######################################################################

1.	Adding New Languages to Webmin

New translations of the existing core Webmin modules are always
welcome. If you want to translate Webmin into a new language or update
one of the existing translations, follow these steps : 
Get the latest development version of Webmin so that you can see the
latest translations that have been done by other people. 

In the file lang_list.txt in the Webmin root directory, add a new line
for your language like :

lang=sw,titles=1,charset=iso-6666-6 Swahili

The "lang" part defines the short code for the language, and should
follow the ISO standard where possible. The "titles" part controls
whether Webmin should use letter images for displaying page titles in
the language, and should be set to 1 if your language uses european
characters. The optional "charset" part sets the character set that is
sent to the web browser when using the language, so that is can
automatically select the right font to use. 

Switch to your new language in the Webmin Configuration module under
the Language icon. 

In the directory lang under the Webmin root and in each of the lang
subdirectories under the module directories, create a new file called
sw (or whatever the short code for your language is) that is a
translation of the en file in the same directory. 

In each of the module.info files under the module directories, add a
new desc_sw= line that is a translation of the desc= line. 

In each of the module directories, create a new file called
config.info.sw which is a translation of config.info (if it exists). 

In the help subdirectory under each of the module directories (where
they exist), translate all of the something.html files into
something.sw.html. 

A table of currently translated languages is available so that you can
see how much has been done for each language and module so far. There
is also a list of other translators that you might want to contact
before doing your own translation work. 
You don't have to finish translating the entire of Webmin for your
translation to be useful. Many people just do a few modules at a time,
or skip the help pages initially. 

When your translation has made some progress, send a .tar.gz file of
all the translated files to the Webmin Translation Team at

          tra...@we...

so that they can include it in the main Webmin distribution. The best
way to tar up everything is with the command :

tar czf /tmp/translation.tar.gz \
       */lang/sw lang/sw */module.info \
       */config.info.sw */help/*.sw.html

######################################################################

2.	Using wbmtranslator

This is a module by Emmanuel Saracco which can be downloaded here:

http://labs.libre-entreprise.org/projects/wbmtranslator/

It consists of an easy to use webinterface in order to update
current translations or setup new languages. Last not least it
enables you to officially send in translations to the Webmin
Translation Team at

	tra...@we...

######################################################################

3.	Is there a way to use localization when developing
	a new theme?
	
Yes (by Jamie Cameron)
There is a way to do this - create a lang/ subdirectory under your
theme with the usual en, de and other files. Then in your theme CGIs
or .pl, use code like :

%mytext = &load_language("my-theme-directory");
print "<b>$mytext{'something'}</b> <p>\n";

Yes, there are extra ServerAlias lines:

<VirtualHost [IP-number]:80>
ServerName domain.nl
ServerAlias www.domain.nl
ServerAlias www.domain.be
ServerAlias www.alias1.nl
ServerAlias www.alias1.be

<Directory /home/[username]/public_html>
Options -Indexes IncludesNOEXEC FollowSymLinks
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

I saw that if I add a Alias Server instead of a normal sub-server to an 
existing server, an extra <VirtualHost> is created in httpd.conf with a 
Redirect. This works for another domain, should I recreate the aliases 
for domain.nl as Alias Servers maybe?

Are these aliases created as separate <VirtualHost> sections in
httpd.conf, or just as extra ServerAlias lines in the section for
domain.nl ? I suspect that it may be the former, which could cause
problems ..

Hi Jamie,

Thank you for your response.

No, for other sub-servers the usage is zero bytes (as it should? at 
least, that is what I would want it to be). For the problem server, I 
get something like this:

domain.nl limit 5120 usage 208
alias1.nl limit [blank] usage 208
alias2.nl limit [blank] usage 208
alias3.nl limit [blank] usage 208
alias4.nl limit [blank] usage 208
alias5.nl limit [blank] usage 208
alias6.nl limit [blank] usage 208

When I click on domain.nl and go to the 'Parent servers only' page, it 
reads limit 5120 usage 1455.

Yes, that is exactly how it worked before. I now remember I had to make 
some temporary changes in the httpd.conf for this particular server and 
undid them a while ago (so everything should be in the same state as 
when the bandwidth usage was recorded correctly), but now all usage is 
being recorded for each ServerAlias. Do you have an idea what I could be 
doing wrong?

Bye,

in the last 2 years or so - it's primarily been me  ;-)  I had forgotten
that I got a new server at home and set it up with CentOS 4 which I was
able to load Net::LDAP where I wasn't able to do that with RHEL 3.

We need to get you to see the light of cyrus  ;-)

I suppose I can debug, I have other fish to fry for the time being.

Thanks

Craig

If you go to the Bandwidth Usage page and click on the 'Parent and
sub-servers' link, does it show any usage at all for your sub-domains?

By the way, for alias websites that are created by just adding another
ServerAlias entry to the main server's httpd.conf section, there will
never be any web bandwidth recorded as they have no separate website..
Instead, it will all accumulate against the parent server.

Some people have reported problems with Net::LDAP and Cyrus before ..
try doing a search on the mailing list. Unfortunately I don't use Cyrus
myself, so I can't help much ..

going through my logs, it shows that cyrus has indeed logged in
successfully so it appears to be an issue with Net::LDAP (NetxAP) and
RHEL distributions though I can get it installed on RHEL 4 where I
couldn't get that far on RHEL 3
