[Bug 748615] Re: Login fails on Webmin
I don't see anything here that describes a bug in sudo; webmin seems to simply not support thedefault sudo setup included in Ubuntu.

[Bug 748615] Re: Login fails on Webmin
I discovered that connecting as sudoers works if the user is directly referred in the sudoers file. Normally, users are sudoers by being member of the group admin. You can test this, just by copying the line: %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL and replace %admin by the user id. of course, this does not constitute a solution but I thought this would help troubleshooting. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/748615 Title: Login fails on Webmin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/748615/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 748615] Re: Login fails on Webmin
Solved same issue with Mythbuntu 11.04 - The default webmin user was root, with an unknown password. This did not match my username and password set during install! Ran this script to set it; sudo /usr/share/webmin/changepass.pl /etc/webmin root your-password Once in to the web, I added a new webmin user, to match my logon name.

I am having exactly the same problem. Login fails despite known good user and password. I'm not going to downgrade sudo, however.
