[webmin-l] [ADMIN - Webmin Translators Mailinglist] Closing down ...

[Martin M. <mm...@me...>]

Hi all,

a few weeks ago I took one step back from being the Webmin Translation 
Co-Ordinator and now I will do the final second one.

As of 01.11.2005 the Webmin Translator's List and all the sub-lists for 
Webmin Trans French and Webmin Trans Persian will be closed down and they 
will be permanently deleted one week after the close down.

All of these lists were hosted by myself and they are closed down because 
they do not seem to be of a general interest anymore so translation stuff 
can be moved to the webmin developer's list I think.

If someone want to take over the responsibility in maintaining the lists on 
his/hers server I will happily assist him/her to move the current stuff to 
the new location. If this is the case please leave a message to: 
<mailto:mm...@us...>

bis dahin/kind regards

Martin Mewes

Re: [webmin-l] Webmin Login Help

[Matt <fro...@ya...>]

That could be a reason. I am currently running an old version 1.070. I will upgrade to the new version 1.240 and update you if it worked or not.
 
Thanks for all your help.

Again when I tried the second method, i.e just typing the IP Address in the URL without passing the username/password, getting the login screen and then typing the complete URL with username/password, it works fine. How is it that it is able to set cookies when only the IP Address is entered https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000 and not with the complete URL https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000/session_login.cgi?user=adminamp;pass=xxxxxxamp;log_account=10?

Thanks a lot for the help. It worked fine for me. Another question is the first time I click the link
https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000/session_login.cgi?user=adminamp;pass=xxxxxxamp;log_account=10
, it comes up with an error saying 
The page cannot be displayed There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed.
But if I just give the link https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000 and hit enter, it shows the login page which is fine. But after that clic k the above url with the username and password it works just fine.

What is the reason it doesn't work initially ? Does it need to set any cookies? Why does it work the second method. Any help or suggestion is highly appreciated.

Matt

Now I want to able to control which page is loaded by default
depending on the value of log_account, for eg: if log_account=10, I
want it to load Networking page and if log_account=20, I want it to
load System page. Can I check the value of log_account or any other
variable I pass? So can anyone explain how webmin's login process
works and what file is executed after the login button on
session_login.cgi has been clicked?

You should be able to specify the page to go to after login already, by
adding a URL parameter like :

amp;page=/%3Fcat%3Dsystem

to go to the system category.

Re: [webmin-l] Syslog-NG

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

Unfortunately, no. I looked into adding support for it, but found that the syslog-ng config file was almost impossible to parse for editing in a GUI like Webmin. It has so many capabilities for deciding what goes into each log file (like boolean logic) that it is almost a programming language :-(

Re: [webmin-l] Error message from a host of scripts...

Hi Thomas,
Is the Webmin 1.240 package you are using from www.webmin.com, or some other source? I don't really trust the Mandriva packages :-)

I get something similar to this:

7.
Compilation failed in require at ./backup.pl line 6. 

from a host of scripts.

This occurs whether I execute the file via cron, or execute the file
interactively.

Here's the code section from fsdump-lib.pl

do '../web-lib.pl';
&init_config();


... if I add a require '../web-lib-funcs.pl'; line right after the
web-lib line, I don't get this error.

../web-lib-funcs.pl is where init_config is.

I'm running webmin 1.240 from www.webmin.com

Note: I also get this running the same script off my desktop, which uses
the webmin sourced from Mandriva, and is I think 1.230.

I see other complaints about this in various web forums, but no clear
answers yet...

Re: [webmin-l] Managing /etc/aliases

[Marcos R. <we...@al...>]

give the user access to the sendmail module... then, edit the access for
that user (on the webmin users configuration, under the name of your
client, you click on the "sendmail" module, and there you answer all "no"
except for aliases... you can restrict which aliases your client can
change)

I do not know anyway to show the aliases without having a sendmail
module.. but I suppose that it's possible!

Cheers!
Marcos

[webmin-l] Managing /etc/aliases

[Daniel P. <da...@ri...>]

G'day.  

One thing I would like to offer my clients is the use of WebMin to
manage mail server aliases.  I can't find a module that does what I
want, though:

* manage /etc/aliases manually
* hook into useradmin to add/remove aliases on user create/delete
* not be hidden in the depths of another mail server module

Is there something out there that I have missed?  I checked the standard
modules and the third party modules pages on the standard site, and it
doesn't look like there is anything.


Basically, the use case here is that I have clients who I don't want
touching the mail server configuration, but who I do want to be able to
add and remove aliases themselves.


Any suggestions, or should I write something myself?

Regards,
        Daniel

Re: [webmin-l] Netstat Module

[Alan D. <We...@Om...>]

Thanks, Joe.  That was exactly what I was looking for!

I have used your module in the past on other systems, but I had not
installed it yet on my Virtualmin Professional system.  After you get
your overhaul done, it will be a great addition as a standard module.

Thanks,
Alan

At the moment, the Postfix module cannot be restricted in that way.

A better solution would be to install the Virtualmin module, which does
allow users to be created who have access to only aliases in a single
domain. It supports Sendmail, Qmail and Postfix mail servers..

Re: [webmin-l] Netstat Module

[Joe C. <jo...@sw...>]

Hey Alan,

My System Information module has a netstat mode.  You can get it here:

http://www.swelltech.com/projects/webmin/sysinfo.html

To get to "netstat -l" data click on Network Statistics and then 
Listening Sockets.

The module is getting an overhaul as soon as I have some time to spare. 
  There's quite a few improvements architecturally that need doing, and 
it is a great place to experiment with AJAX features (realtime graph 
updates without page reloads would be lovely).

The module only has configs for Red Hat based systems, I think, but 
modifying it to run on just about any other Linux or Unix would be 
pretty easy (it will get FreeBSD, Debian, SUSE, Mandrake, and Gentoo 
support in a month or two for reasons I suspect you, as a Virtualmin 
Professional user, can guess).

[webmin-l] Netstat Module

[Alan D. <We...@Om...>]

Is there a Webmin module to list all open ports on a system, such as the 
netstat command?  I noticed the "Running Processes" module will show 
network connections for a given process, and it allows for searching all 
processes for a given port.  But it does not seem to have a way to list 
all open ports, or search for a range of ports.  Has something like this 
been developed?  If not, would it be appropriate to add these features to 
the "Running Processes" module, or would a separate "Network Connections" 
module be in order?

Thanks,
Alan

Re: [webmin-l] Postfix/WebMin Module Probs

[Weinberg, M. <Mic...@it...>]

Hi together.

Thank you for the answer Jamie, but i asked for the virtual Adress Mapping =
List.
Have you got an solution for that too?

I explain:
The admin (webmin User ) of each domain can edit the virtual address list
For example:

peter@a.bc goes to a.bc.0001 ( this is a user mailbox on the server )=20

So, I can=B4t say in the webmin modul for postfix, that the admin of a.bc e=
ven only sees the virtual addresses for the domain a.bc --- he sees all map=
pings on the server, even these from other domains.

In the sendmail configuration modul for webmin users I can say, that the us=
er only can edit virtual mapping for RegExp matches a.bc

This I cant do in the postfix configuration module on the webmin

You got any solution for that problem?

Thank you

Mic...@it...

I rebooted the box just to make sure. Would it matter if my webmin was running on another port say 443. I have another machine running webmin @ 443 and it has the same problem.
 
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks a lot for the help. It worked fine for me. Another question is the first time I click the link
https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000/session_login.cgi?user=adminamp;pass=xxxxxxamp;log_account=10
, it comes up with an error saying 
The page cannot be displayed There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed.
But if I just give the link https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000 and hit enter, it shows the login page which is fine. But after that clic k the above url with the username and password it works just fine.

What is the reason it doesn't work initially? Does it need to set any cookies? Why does it work the second method. Any help or suggestion is highly appreciated.

You should be able to specify the page to go to after login already, by
adding a URL parameter like :

amp;page=/%3Fcat%3Dsystem

to go to the system category.

You can control which users a Webmin user can read email for, by doing
the following :

 - Go to the Webmin Users module
 - Click on Read User Mail next to the webmin login you want to restrict
 - On the form that appears, limit him by group, UID range or regular
expression.
 - Click Save

The functionality that used to be in the Sendmail and Postfix modules
for reading email was moved to the Read User Mail module a few releases
back..

Re: [webmin-l] Linux Firewall not restarting at boot

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

Are you using any hostnames instead in your firewall rules instead of IP addresses? Using a hostname may slow down the process of loading the firewall while it is looked up.. In fact, this may fail completely if the DNS server cannot be contacted, perhaps due to another firewall rule.

Subj:  [webmin-l] Linux Firewall not restarting at boot
Date:  Wed 19 Oct 2005 2:04 am
Size:  1K
To:  <web...@li...>

Since upgrading to Webmin 1.230, upon rebooting the server Linux Firewall is 
either not starting or is starting but not fully activating the last set of 
saved rules.  When I look at iptables in Bootup/Shutdown after a reboot I 
see "status unknown".   When viewing status after activating my rules from 
within the Linux Firewall module the bootup/shutdown edit page for iptables 
times out.  This leads me to believe that I am not getting a full restart of 
iptables upon reboot.  (NOTE: The time outs of the boot/shutdown edit page 
is not an issue here.  It likely occurs because of the large number of rules 
I keep active - and indicates to me that all is running correctly).

This problem at reboot seems to be the same whether I have Linux Firewall 
configured for editing of the save file or to edit the iptables file 
directly, or if I simply edit the iptables files by hand.

Any suggestions? I am on Redhat Linux 7.3.

Any suggestions? I am on Redhat Linux 7.3.

Re: [webmin-l] Webmin Login Help

[Matt <fro...@ya...>]

 I tried with Firefox and the error message was 
Error - No cookies
Your browser does not support cookies, which are required for this web server to work in session authentication mode
Again when I tried the second method, i.e just typing the IP Address in the URL without passing the username/password, getting the login screen and then typing the complete URL with username/password, it works fine. How is it that it is able to set cookies when only the IP Address is entered https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000 and not with the complete URL https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000/session_login.cgi?user=adminamp;pass=xxxxxxamp;log_account=10?
 
Thanks,
 
Matt

Thanks a lot for the help. It worked fine for me. Another question is the first time I click the link
https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000/session_login.cgi?user=adminamp;pass=xxxxxxamp;log_account=10
, it comes up with an error saying 
The page cannot be displayed There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed.
But if I just give the link https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000 and hit enter, it shows the login page which is fine. But after that click the above url with the username and password it works just fine.

What is the reason it doesn't work initially? Does it need to set any cookies? Why does it work the second method. Any help or suggestion is highly appreciated.

Now I want to able to control which page is loaded by default
depending on the value of log_account, for eg: if log_account=10, I
want it to load Networking page and if log_account=20, I want it to
load System page. Can I check the value of log_account or any other
variable I pass? So can anyone explain how webmin's login process
works and what file is executed after the login button on
session_login.cgi has been clicked?

You should be able to specify the page to go to after login already, by
adding a URL parameter like :

amp;page=/%3Fcat%3Dsystem

to go to the system category.

[webmin-l] Postfix/WebMin Module Probs

[Weinberg, M. <Mic...@it...>]

Hi There
I have got a problem. I install postfix and SLES8 out of the box. Then i
installed webmin and Usermin, configure everything and everything is
working fine.
We are a MailHoster and our customers organize their virtual adresses (
EmailAdress to mailbox ) on their own.
In the Webmin Modul Sendmail ( our old Server) , i can say, that the
Webmin User "willy" only sees the  virtual adresses from @willy.com for
example.
There is no possiility under in the postifx modul and the user willy
sees all virtual adresses existing on the server!!!!!!!!

Anyone got a idea, how to fix that, to filter the view on the virtual
adresses per Each configured WebMinUserModul Postfix Configuration?

=20

Thanks for your help.

You should try connecting in a browser other than IE, such as Firefox. IE hides the real error message from the web server, so it is hard to see what is going wrong..
