Dear,

        For me I install webmin from webmin rpm into skel, and modify 
/usr/libexec/setup.sh so it will not check for port conflict, and add a line at the 
section which create miniserv.conf file to bind ip address to VS.

        echo "Bind=`hostname -i`" >> /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf

        next, I add those line which copy from webmin spec(webmin setup) to /etc/rc 
and change root to admin so the admin password from /etc/passwd will setup correctly. 
I also add a root account by echo "root:*::" to miniserv.users. So the first time VS 
boot will automatically setup webmin properly.

        For module, I remove those useless one. I currently have all webmin catalog 
moduler.

        Bootup & shutdown(I've succesful make rc?.d working, so admin of VS can start 
and stop service with no problem.), change password, running process, crons job, 
system doc, system logs, user & group moduler(with my own modify, this moduler can let 
VS admin modify user rights and quota too) in system.

        apache, ftp(I've wu-ftpd working), interchange(not webmin default moduler, 
which may be useful i guess if you have interchange installed in VS), majordomo, 
mysql, postgresql, sendmail in server catalog.

        I've network configuration(only DNS client and host address), system 
time(without hardware time access) in hardwae.

        command shell, custom command, file manager, perl moduler, telnet, system 
status in the last catalog. I think it is enough for VS admin with most of the tools 
to maintaince his VS without any problem. And also webmin will not let VS admin gain 
access to unix account outsite the login.def uid range.

        The only problem(maybe is not a problem) is fileman will only let admin user 
touching his own file, others user file will return a permission denied. I know that 
in VS, admin can do anythings on the files which belongs to user within uid range. 
I'll try to solve it later if I've time. If anyone have a solutions please let me know.

        Hope the above can help everyone, if anyone have any suggestion or comments, 
please email or post it in this list. I'll try my best to add it to webmin. I'll not 
post webmin to FreeVSD, since idaya have its own webadmin and commercial software to 
control FreeVSD. Idaya need fund to continue support FreeVSD in order to let everyone 
having this great tools. If anyone have any problem on webmin, I'm happy to help. But 
first I must say that, I never learn perl and c before, all of the modification for 
above softwares are learn and take from somewhere. And my english is also not very 
well. Anyway I'm happy to share with everyone everythings I've learn.

P/S: I'm running webmin 0.87.

stenny
