Re: [expert] How to mend a stupid slip?
I don't know about Netscape or Mozilla. However, MS Internet Explorer saves cookies in two different folders. One is: C:\Documents and Settings\(UserName)\Cookies\ The other is: C:\Documents and Settings\(UserName)\Local Settings\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\ If the Remember Password option is checked, a username password cookie is saved in the \Temporary Internet Files\ folder. The contents of that folder are not deleted when a user selects Delete Cookies from the browser, so that usernames and passwords are not deleted. Cookies saved there must be deleted manually. Other browsers probably save username password cookies separately form ordinary cookies for the same reason. However, I can't tell you exactly where they are saved by other browsers. -admintiger From: Anne Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] How to mend a stupid slip?

Webmin uses Konqueror. I have looked through all the cookies in Konq, and can find nothing that seems to be related to webmin. I have never allowed it to 'save password'.

One is: C:\Documents and Settings\(UserName)\Cookies\ The other is: C:\Documents and Settings\(UserName)\Local Settings\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\ If the Remember Password option is checked, a username password cookie is saved in the \Temporary Internet Files\ folder. The contents of that folder are not deleted when a user selects Delete Cookies from the browser, so that usernames and passwords are not deleted. Cookies saved there must be deleted manually. Other browsers probably save username password cookies separately form ordinary cookies for the same reason. However, I can't tell you exactly where they are saved by other browsers. -admintiger From: Anne Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] How to mend a stupid slip?

Re: [expert] How to mend a stupid slip?
In webmin there is a setting to rember the password if you turned this on just change the root user's password and go to webmin and when prompted for the new password uncheck the "Always Rember Password" box. If this is the case (Webmin I mean) youshould not let webmin run all the time anyway. You should ssh into the server and type "service webmin start" and when done "service webmin stop" and logout of the server leaving webmin NOT running.

Re: [expert] How to mend a stupid slip?
Sorry for posting to my own post. If that doesn't work. There is a section in Webmin "Webmin Configuration - Authentacation" make sure that "Always require username and password" is checked.
