I think I asked this question before, but cannot find the answer. Scenario 1: Two webmins, one "central" and one "node". The "node" is on a Linux firewall machine, the "central" is on a Linux machine behind a firewall. I want these two to communicate securely, using a given port (say 8080 instead of 10000). What do I need to open on the firewalls for these two to be able to communicate securerly, issue fast RPC commands, etc.? Scenario 2: Similar to the above, but "node" is on a Linux samba server behind the above mentioned Linux firewall, I want it to communicate with the "central" webmin in the same way as described above. Hints/configurations/tips are welcome. -joho |

The port Webmin uses for inter-system communication is always the one that you login to it on, which is typically 10000. So you would have to allow traffic on port 10000 to the node through the firewall. Also, if you want to use 'fast RPC' mode, you should also open ports 10001-10100. > Scenario 2: > > Similar to the above, but "node" is on a Linux samba server behind the > above mentioned Linux firewall, I want it to communicate with the "central" > webmin in the same way as described above. So are both node and central behind the firewall? If so, it wouldn't even come into play .. - Jamie |

Hello!
OK; so if I move it to 8080, we're talking 8080 + 8081-8180?
And for #2, they're both behind firewalls, but not the same firewall.
This is for running Webmin on a remote site (the "node"), reporting/communi=
cating with our webmin ("central).

The port Webmin uses for inter-system communication is always the one that
you login to it on, which is typically 10000. So you would have to allow tr=
affic
on port 10000 to the node through the firewall.
Also, if you want to use 'fast RPC' mode, you should also open ports 10001-=
10100.

So are both node and central behind the firewall? If so, it wouldn't even
come into play ..

Yes..

In that case, both firewalls would have to allow the traffic - but only
from the central to the node.
