Dear list
I am more concerned that I can not erase webmin-0-92 as it tells me that it is not installed. When all of the config files are there and I can use webmin. I have install webmin before using rpm -Uvh webmin-0-92 and removed it with the command rpm -e webmin and it worked fine. The only difference I see is that I installed it using rpm --install webmin-0-92 which DOES NOT update the database as it should.
