hi

I have mandriva 10.1 (mandrake), also I have 2 web site working on it.
My question is, how can I access to webmin from another location, I tried on the server an worked but when I try from another location don't work, I used "https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000" but didn't work. I have to set the firewall or another security step to do this work? how?

thanks

You need to configure your firewall (on the machine you wish to connect to) to allow connections to port 10000. The firewall configuration tool is accessible by running MCC -> Security -> Firewall. One thing to note is that Mandrake 10.1 reached its end of life a long time ago, so you should think about using a newer distribution e.g. Mandriva 2008.
