RE: [webmin-l] upgrade

[Vernon J. S. <ve...@ve...>]

1. Check your firewall settings.
2. Make sure your ip route is setup correctly.
3. You can do an alternative down/upgrade by typing=20
rpm -Uvh
http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin-1.240-1.noarch=
.rp
m
4. Or you can do a wget
http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin-1.240-1.noarch=
.rp
m then type rpm -Uvh webadmin/webmin-1.240-1.noarch.rpm

See if any of those methods can help you get the updated version.

[webmin-l] Easy question

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

Hi all:

One easy question:
When using  the custom commands module and trying to make a sql
command, I don't know how to introduce a parameter in the sql command.
What I'm trying to do is:

select * from $table
or
select * from :table

Where "table" is the parameter.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

that was my motivation for bringing it up. With samba group mapping, I
could get that same thing done 2 different ways - the first being the
extra properties automatically entered and the second being the POSIX
group membership which is mapped to the same. I preferred to leave
nothing to chance and insert it directly into LDAP since it is possible
to change the primary POSIX group membership in an unthinking minute. As
soon as you added this feature, you defeated both of them.

If it makes sense to you, I would suggest that you either drop it (like
it was a version or 3 ago in Webmin) or have it configurable in its own
field in the module config. Either of these options is highly preferable
to something that I can't configure which means that I have to create
the user and then go back and fix it.

Your concept is fine except for one thing...well known RID's

Link to samba documentation
http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-
Collection/groupmapping.html#WKURIDS

The concept is if you want all new users to automatically be a member of
"Domain Users" - their sambaPrimaryGroupSID, then it would have an RID
(Relative ID) of 513 so the SID:
S-1-5-21-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-513
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^
     |                                          |
|------< RID
     |
|                                      
     |                                          |--------< Unique to
each domain
     |
     |-----< Domain Group (not local)

since the 513 is the Well known RID for the Domain Group "Domain Users"
- some people (if not most) would have the default sambaPrimaryGroupSID
be that one.

I can't answer for what other people do. Perhaps it would be best to
have this configurable by the administrator (the value of
sambaPrimaryGroupSID).

Thanks

In the current release of Webmin, that attribute is set automatically.
The value is always DOMAIN-XXX , where XXX is the Unix GID*2+1000 .

Let me know if this doesn't seem correct, as I am not too familiar with
the real purpose of this attribute :-)

Re: [webmin-l] Ping Monitor Issues

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

Hi Bradley,

I had a look at the code, and I can see how this could happen.. If the
monitor gets notified that it will receive a packet but doesn't
actually, it will fail as you described.

The work-around is to edit the file status/ping-monitor.pl and insert
the following at line 114:

next if (!$from_saddr);

Let me know if that works..

[webmin-l] ldap users and groups samba

[Craig W. <cra...@az...>]

Something changed in the last few versions of LDAP Users and Groups
module and I can't figure out where it changed.

I previously automatically added the sambaPrimaryGroupSID via config:
LDAP properties for new Samba users

If I create a new user now, that fails because...
Failed to save user : Failed to add user to LDAP database :
sambaprimarygroupsid: multiple values provided

OK - so I remove the automatic entry from config but now the
sambaPrimaryGroupSID is set to S-1-5....-2000 instead of S-1-5...-513
and I can't figure out where that is coming from. Any clues?

Thanks

Craig

Sure:

HTTP/1.0 500 Perl execution failed Server: MiniServ/0.01 Date: Wed, 26 Oct

Now if I try to edit that monitor, I see the same thing.

[webmin-l] Ping Monitor Issues

[Bradley J. <big...@gm...>]

Hi all...

I set up a ping monitor through the Server/System Status pages and due to
some glitches, the ping-monitor perl script is bombing with:
Error - Perl execution failed

Bad arg length for Socket::unpack_sockaddr_in, length is 0, should be
16 at ping-monitor.pl line 114.


Anyway - I'm not sure how to fix it considering that the IP that I
provided is def. not 0 length.
I figured I'd try to remove the monitor, but I can't find any record
of it in the /status/services directory.
I've grepped through all of the files in the webmin directory and I
can't find any reference to it.

Any ideas on how to fix or remove this monitor?

Thanks
B

[webmin-l] Webmin Cron Jobs: Error - Perl execution failed

[Jason S. <jas...@gm...>]

Webmin 1.240
Mac OS X Server 10.3.9

If I access the module for scheduled cron jobs and click on the Run
Now button, I get this:

HTTP/1.0 500 Perl execution failed Server: MiniServ/0.01 Date: Wed, 26
Oct 2005 13:42:16 GMT Content-type: text/html Connection: close
Error - Perl execution failed

setrgid() not implemented at /usr/local/webmin/cron/exec_cron.cgi line 41.

Suggestions?

[webmin-l] Bind question

[E. K. \(D. ICT\) <e.k...@do...>]

Hello everybody,

=20

I have a question about the Bind Module. I have 1 Master Server en 1
Slave Server. I have setup Zone Defaults.

It is working fine. But when i do a transfer to the slave, the record on
the Slave looks more professional. How does this come?

Also  the mx record is very is different? This is the zone default for
the mx record on the Master Server.

The Master file looks like this;

Re: [webmin-l] can't get bind within Webmin to do a zone transfer from DNS on Windows

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

Hi Dale, 
Have you tried using the Apply Configuration button on the main page of the BIND module instead? It should force a transfer of all slave zones ..

When you click it, check for new entries in /var/log/messages from BIND to see if the zone transfer failed for any reason.

Hello,

I have been pulling what is left of my hair out here :)

Currently our primary DNS is running on a windows box using MS DNS. I am 
trying to get our secondary setup on a Linux box running BIND and 
Webmin. I have allowed the IP of our Linux box in the windows DNS setup 
to do a zone transfer, yet I get the following error when I do a force 
update from within the bind module in Webmin:

NDC command failed: rndc: connect failed: connection refused

No entries in the system logs. I am not sure where to check from here. I 
do not believe there are any firewall issues involved here (although I 
could be very wrong).

Thanks

The -m option only must be used if you want to create a home directory for 
the machine account. I tried it anyway though.. Same error......

My system says that if you use the -r, you must use the -m option.
This is a RED HAT option, as stated in the man pages.
