Hello, Hello, I have a question regarding changing password to login to webmin, I am not sure if it's normal but during the download it didn't ask me to give any admin password, and it allows me to use with "root" as login id and "systems root password" for the password. I would like to know how to change the login id and the password for admin login. Any one knows how? Thanks, Hulya |

Hello, This may not be the appropriate list for submitting this question, but I wanted to take a shot anyway. We have just moved our server from one hard drive to another because we needed to upgrade our OS and wanted to keep the original for backup. We now have the following server details: Server Version: Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) (Red-Hat/Linux) mod_ssl/2.8.1 OpenSSL/0.9.6 PHP/4.0.4pl1 mod_perl/1.24_01 The problem I am experiencing is that we copied the files over from the old configuration to the new configuration for Sendmail. Everything seems to be in place according to the Webmin configuration of Sendmail, and I have tried restarting Sendmail successfully several times. The problem I am experiencing is that all of the mail seems to reach my server, and cannot find its way to the forward email addresses. I am finding the mail sitting in Queue, but I never receive it at my external POP address as the system was configured to do. This is a real painful problem for me that I have been trying to work out for four days. Can anyone offer me some advice in this area? Thanks.

Did you configure a pop server on the new machine? Sendmail does not do POP delivery by itself. It only accepts and sends the SMTP transmissions (which you seem to be doing successfully).

You can do it two ways. 1.- from webmin (web interface): .- log in webmin using root and your pass .- choose webmin/webmin users .- the first webmin user (and probably the only one?)... will be root. Click on it .- You'll se then the "webmin user access rights"... at the end of that, you will find a button labeled "Clone"... click on it .- you can now choose a new webmin user, that could be a system user o something you create only for webmin.- you'll have also an option to use the same passwd than in unix (if it is a unix user), or create a new passwd. .-click on save (hiting enter will work too ;) .- if you want to be *extra* sure... logout of webmin (depending on the "skin" you use you could need to go first to the webmin index), and log as the new user with the new pass. .- go back to webmin/webmin users, click on root, and at the end of "webmin user access rights" you have a button labeled "Delete".. Click on it... and you that's it :) 2.- from the unix shell... but.. I leave this for other time... I do need to go back to work ;).... (seriously, if for any reason you object to use the previous method using webmin.... let me know and I go ahead and write this ;) cheers! and good luck Marcos On Mon, 4 Jun 2001, Hulya Gurer wrote: > > Hello, > > Hello, > > I have a question regarding changing password to login to webmin, > I am not sure if it's normal but during the download it didn't ask me to give > any admin password, and it allows me to use with "root" as login id and > "systems root password" > for the password.

Hello, I have installed a new version of webmin, and trying to set up MySQL Database Server access control. What ever I put as login name and password it denies to access. What am I missing? I have tried even root password, nothing works. Any thoughts? Thanks bunch Hulya |

Hi, Is there a way to reset the "admin" password just in case it was forgotten ? Thanks, Garry |

Of course. It's a common problem. That's why it's in the FAQ and in my book. Hmmm...You probably should have checked the FAQ first, eh? ;-) John Samson wrote: > Hi, > Is there a way to reset the "admin" password just in case it was > forgotten ? |
