Dear All,

I am trying to install v1.150 on OpenBSD 3.4,
untarballed/unzipped, ran "./setup.sh" and it starts up
fine but says it is installing to "/temp/webmin-1.150/". I
dont want it installed in that directory, I want it installed
to default locations, plain jane, straight install, nothing
custom whatsoever. I dont think I instructed it to do
this. Did I? I even uninstalled & reinstalled and same
result. If any one knows how to get this to install to
where the default installation directories are, it would be
most appreciated. I thought about copying a few of the
*.pl files to a few locations but then thought better and
didnt do that. It really has me stumped. I checked the
start script in the "/etc/init.d/webmin" and it points to
the 'tmp' directory also. In fact, that was how I knew
somehting was odd, I went to restart webmin & it
couldnt find "miniserv.pl" since it was no longer located
at "/tmp/webmin-1.150/miniserv.pl" any longer, which,
orf course, it wasnt, I nuked that after I finished
installing it.

Thanks very much.

Cheers.

Jason

    The default behaviour of Webmin is to run out of the source
    directory.
    If you'd prefer it to be installed elsewhere, you can run
    ./setup.sh /usr/local/webmin
    and it will run out of /usr/local/webmin . The source
    directory can then be deleted after the install is complete ..
