Hmmm ...
I would like to confirm this, but actually when I am in

webmin/time

I do not have a Button like this.

These are the buttons I have, please choose:

a) System Time
[ ] Apply
[ ] Set system time to hardware time

b) Hardware Time
[ ] Apply
[ ] Set hardware time to system time

c) Time Server
[ ] Synch system time
[ ] Synch system time / Synch hardware time

Before going further I would like you to deinstall and reinstall this
particular module in order to get the freshest one.

-> Webmin Configuration
--> Webmin Modules
---> Delete Modules
----> Choose "System Time"
-----> Delete Selected Module

"Are you sure you want to delete the module(s) System Time ? 392 kB of
files will be deleted forever."

------> Delete

"The following modules have been successfully deleted from your Webmin
installation :" [...]

Then

-> Return to Webmin Configuration
--> Webmin Modules
---> Install Module
----> Indicate "Standard module from http://www.webmin.com";
-----> Click on the button with "..." on it.
------> Click on "time"
-------> Click on "Install Module From File"

"Downloading time.wbm (133120 bytes) .." [...]

"The following modules have been successfully installed and added to
your access control list :

System Time in /usr/libexec/webmin/time (392 kB) under category
Hardware"

Now go to "Hardware" - "System Time".

Is your module in synch with mine now?

If not I guess you are using a non-standard-webmin-module.

At which point you have the trouble exactly?
Where do you clicked on etcpp.

I cannot find the file either, but well I do not need it because I
have a CronJob setting my time ;-)

[webmin-l] Setting System Timezone

[kaiwen <cal_kaiwen@ho...>]

Hi,=20

I wish to set the timezone of the system, I uncomment the portion of =
code for timezone configuration.
But, I am missing one file savezone.cgi.

Where can I find this file? Please advice, is it possible that I lost it =
suring installing webmin module?

Thank you.

The dump program is designed to dump to a device (like a tape drive or a
raw disk partition or even a disk drive). It probably can dump to a file,
though I've never tried it. So change
ddrucker@...:/Users/ddrucker/backups/ to
ddrucker@...:/Users/ddrucker/backups/dad and see how that
goes.

[webmin-l] how to use filesystem backup without tape drive

[Daniel M. Drucker <dmd@3e...>]

I seem to have managed to get it to write to a file, but ONLY if a touch
the file first.

If the file doesn't exist on the destination already, it fails. Is there
any way to get it to automatically create the file? I could easily have a
cron job touch the file each day before backup, but that seems rather
kludgy.

You probably need to have that rmt program installed on the remote
system. On my redhat linux box, it is in a package called 'rmt' - other
operating systems may differ.
