Got a problem not covered by the docs? Don't know where to look in the docs or in the forums? All of the other forums over your head? If you're new to Virtualmin, this is the place for you.

User features not available

Hi.

This has me stumped - for an existing User I have, as root, in Virtualmin > Administration Options > Edit Owner Limits > Allowed capabilities and features > Allowed features for servers, set

BIND DNS Domain - unticked
AWStats Reporting - ticked

If I log in to Virtualmin as the User and contrary to the settings I made as root

there is no Awstats Report under Virtualmin > Logs and Reports
there is BIND DNS Server underVirtualmin > Webmin Modules (the user can access this and make changes)

[SOLVED] Fail2ban not adding rules to Webmin

Hi,

this may or may not be related to this (https://www.virtualmin.com/node/35443) similar thread, but as it's a bit old I'm starting a new one.

I have the following fail2ban jails activated:

  • ssh-iptables (sshd)
  • sasl-iptables (postfix-sasl)
  • postfix-tcpwrapper (postfix)
  • webmin-auth (webmin-auth)
  • dovecot (dovecot)
  • dovecot-auth (dovecot)

When I look at Webmin's iptables page, I can only see these (see attached):

Copying backups from server to server SSH

Having played with Virtualmin for a few months, well more like learning as I've had my live sites up and running, it's time to move to a better host. I've followed the instructions and have got stuck on the transfer of backups from current server to new.

Based on this command scp -r /root/backups root@new_server.com:/root/ I used

scp -r /root/ttt.txt root@xx.xxx.xxx.xx:/root/ to test transfer a file (ttt.txt)

Redirecting html requests to a python script

Trying 5 hours now....i quit....

all i want to do is redirect every html request coming to 403 Forbidden which is actually /home/varsa/public_html to /home/varsa/public_html/cgi-bin/index.py

utilizing this .htaccess file inside public_html

Code: IndexIgnore * AddHandler cgi-script .py Options +ExecCGI

RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/?(.+.html) /cgi-bin/index.py [L,PT,QSA] and i keep getting all kinf of error the last being

[SOLVED] SPF record woes

I'm having trouble getting my SPF and DKIM records to be discovered, but I'll let this be about SPF to keep things simple.

My server is a Kimsufi, from OVH Hosting. BIND was set up by Virtualmin and later I only added a PTR record (works fine) and SPF + DKIM.

So far, http://dkimvalidator.com/ provided the best clue (I anonymized my domain infos):

Black page for php files after fresh installation

First time installing Virtualmin. After few failures I got it installed to a point. Now the problem I have is it's showing me a blank page for testing domain which is the one i use for namesevers.

I know it has to be something to do with php but I had this same problem before when I tried to installed Kloxo-MR in same server. Same problem just a while blank page for php files.

I tested phpinfo file and it works fine

tried to add On value to open_basedir but it doesn't save it. Even after reboot phpinfo shows novalue for that.

The global php.ini is used rather than the virtual server specfic one.

Hi, I use Virtualmin for several months now and I have really adopted it. But, I encountered an issue and I don't know if it is from my lack of expertise or a bug.

When I create a new virtual server, its php.ini file is located in "/home/server-folder/etc/php5/php.ini" and it is the behavior I expect. But when I change the DocumentRoot from "/public_html" to "/public_html/sub-folder", the php.ini file used by my virtual server becomes the global /etc/php.ini.

Can't Receive outcoming emails in webmin (MX Record is not Properly configured)

Hi guys I have a webmin installed on ubuntu server and I configured it from official website to have a mailserver.

I have created a virtual server for my mail server and named it like my domain name, and then i created a bind zone and in there configured A records and nameservers and mail server records.
