I will. I just needed a place to start. actually, about a 1/2 an hour ago i came up with time and date, which even tho i installed ntb and told it to sync... the system clock was still off by a day. Which means webmin may not like that so i set the time manually with sudo date.. sys clock is now ok but still cant log in with webmin. Alltho it does take much longer to say no joy now.
I also think there is a cert problem. I am not good with certs. Here is some stuff i pulled from the browser. Browser pointed to = https://192.168.0.40:10000/session_login.cgi The site's security certificate is not trusted! You attempted to reach 192.168.0.40, but the server presented a certificate issued by an entity that is not trusted by your computer's operating system. This may mean that the server has generated its own security credentials, which Chrome cannot rely on for identity information, or an attacker may be trying to intercept your communications. You should not proceed, especially if you have never seen this warning before for this site. just a reminder.. this is a home network.. no hackers have taken over my BBB..
