Re: [webmin-l] Clustering and RPC issues

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

The issue here is almost certainly that the login you have specified on the master system for the slave is not 'root' or 'admin'. By default, only those two users are allowed to be used for RPC as they have complete access to all Webmin features.

If your master user on the slave system is called something other than 'root' or 'admin', you will need to do the following:

- Go to the Webmin Users module on the slave system
- Click on the Global ACL link next to the master user's name
- Change the 'Can accept RCP calls' option to Yes , and click Save

I have been trying for the longest time to setup clustering and every time I do I get 
the following error message: Invalid RPC login to 192.168.0.11

Any ideas on what's going wrong? I have portmap running (which I think is what I need 
running) and have disabled the firewall (in case there is a port that needs to be 
open, is there?) with no luck.

Thanks,
Vern

Hi Craig,
For the mail aliases I was refering to the 'alias' attribute, which I think Cyrus uses..

I'm all for it.

Just curious - by default, Webmin doesn't include rfc822Mailbox or mail
as a standard attributes and I've always added it for the base
mailboxes. There is no standard for a mail alias unless you are talking
about the objectclass nisMailAlias which is not an attribute so I'm not
entirely sure where you are headed when you say the 'mail alias will be
automatically enforced' but I'm interested.

You can set extra records for Virtualmin to add on the Server Templates

Speaking of the bind template file, is there anyway to setup bind defaults when using 
VirtualMin? I have the "Additional template file" setup with 3 extra NS records which 
works fine when using bind to create the DNS record, but Virtualmin ignores it.

Re: [webmin-l] bind template file

Hi Jamie

i setup template with

;
; Name servers

@ IN NS ns1.example.com.
@ IN NS ns2.example.com.
@ IN NS ns3.example.com.
;
; MX Record
;
@ IN MX 30 mail

www  IN A    1.2.3.4
mail  IN A    1.2.3.6
ftp   IN A    1.2.3.5

tried testdomain.com and got the SOA ok but only the first NS was listed.

testdomain.com. IN NS ns1.example.com.

also is there a wildcard for the IP (mail & ftp are static but www & non www
can change).

That is quite a good idea for a feature actually .. in the next release,
I will add a Module Config option to specify custom fields that are not
allowed to contain duplicates with other users. Also, the mail alias
field will automatically have this enforced ..

Re: [webmin-l] bind template file

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

It is the same format as a standard BIND zone file, although without the
SOA section. If you click on the Edit Records File icon when editing a
zone in Webmin, you can see the format.. each record is on a separate
line.

In that event - an attribute of an entry, openldap wouldn't catch that
and I wouldn't know about other ldap programs. That would be an
interesting escalation of the power of the LDAP Users and Groups module.
Considering that some of the attributes are necessarily duplicated
within the DSA and some are necessarily unique, an option to check for
uniqueness would have to be very configurable.

Re: [webmin-l] Easy question

[Enrique T. <enr...@gm...>]

Thanks for your answer.

Another question, for this module:
I don't know how to make a 'menu' parameter. When I define a parameter
as a menu, and introduce the value (For example jamiecameron,Jamie
Cameron) in the  box, and save the command, I can't see any value.
Again, what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

[webmin-l] SSH/Telnet Module

[Thomas E D. <ed...@al...>]

Hello,

I can't get this to work.  It was previously working but now has stopped.

The module loads, I get the login window, login but then nothing happens.
The only error I see is:

Oct 29 06:59:16 sshd[17209]: Did not receive identification string from
10.10.0.3

I tried logging in with a ssh client and sshd is working.

Thanks

Re: [webmin-l] LDAP User's and Groups Module Duplicate Alias Issue

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

Hi Craig,

I am talking about e-mail aliases which are entered in the Mail Aliases
field.  That stores the entry in the user's alias LDAP attribute.

RE: [webmin-l] Vacation reply issues

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

Yes, that should work..
What gets logged in /var/log/mail or maillog when you send email to
those two addresses?
