Hi Layne
Thanks your quick response. The advice in the faq didn't work - i have
version 0.8 of webmin, maybe that is the problem.
But -- on  the webmin site is an html webmin manual. Down loaded that
and the first page gave the clue and hey presto I'm in to webmin using
root+root passwd
My postfix is a disaster area; maybe webmin will help fix it up.

Regards
Alan
