Last time I looked at edubuntu, they were still using webmin, so someone not so far away must be maintaining it. I didn't use much of webmin however, just the ldap and backup. I found the rest frustrating and slow. What I would like to be improved (more than lwat) is slbackup.php. I have failed to backup to another machine on Etch and now Lenny. It would be fantastic if I could manage to do that through slbackup.php cheers nigel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
