webmin, slack9.1

tcaptain · 10-24-2003, 02:49 PM

I just set up slack 9.1 on an old PC last weekend to make myself a new gateway.

I have webmin running on it...seemingly fine (for what little I've tested on it) but I have found 1 problem that I don't know how to fix.

When I try to install the usermin module from within webmin, the setup.sh script always stops with "Failed to detect Operating System".

I'm thinking its because its slack 9.1 (and on the site I only saw 9.0 mentionned)

anyone know how to get around that?

Webmin-1.120 is now out and this supports Slackware 9.1. I downloaded and installed it and it seems to work OK, Perl SSL was missing

Wow, that's cool...must be recent because I hadn't seen it two weeks ago.
I'll go and download it.

Tomorrow I'm going to have a go at installing this on an ancient Redhat 5.0 box, mainly to recover settings from it so that we can build a new mail server.
We have a uucp email account which is a headache to update as most of the modern email software like postfix does not support.
