Re the users & groups tool under the system -> admin -> users&groups: that complains about a backend script not running... ???? A lot of the stuff under system->admin fails to work: hmm. Suppose I should reinstall them.

I tried running the openindiana webmin, 1.510?? That works reasonably.

webmin 1.570 will work IF you install it from the webmin pkg file, but you have to fiddle around a bit to make it a service. There's an init.d script, and that will start it. You have to do a rolemod -K type=normal root, and that's not... or maybe it is...

usermin is OK, partic the limited version for webmail-mostly, if you add the change-password module. That fits the bill for user self-admin for our mail server machine.

Which Webmin version do you use or did you install?

The 1.47 version that comes from the pkg installer has a missetting for the
servicefacility. Please search the list for svcs&  webmin and my
emailaddress.

If you have 1.47 running and try to update to 1.57 then you're back at
square 1. Because 1.57 really messes things up. It installs somewhere inside
/usr/lib and won't start at all. You can better download the pkg for 1.57
and install it manually (download, unpack and do pkgadd -d webmin*****.pkg)
but then it still won't start. You can only start it with /etc/webmin/start

I will try to get it running with the service management facility when I
have my new server up and running. Then I will post an howto for it.

I'm looking for some kind of user/system/services management tools that I
could trust novices and Microsoft people to cope with..

Some working webmin-like system would be nice, but the current webmin fails
consistently on my system.

I kind of liked smc, but that's not available, is it?
