Webmin and Debian problem

newuser455 · 07-06-2005, 01:11 AM

I have just installed Webmin on my Debian 3.1 system (I am new to Debian). For some reason, when I try to access webmin from another computer, I get a Forbidden 403 error. To see for yourself, you can go to xxxxxx. **I am only able to access Webmin via localhost.

I have successfully installed Webmin on my RH and FC machines in the past.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

A) I have no problem accessing your server

B) Making your webmin server visible from the internet is very bad security policy, almost an invitation to hackers
C) Posting your webmin address on a public forum is suicide

Fixed the problem... I logged in from localhost and added my ip to the allow list.
