Re: [cobalt-security] Telent 0.17 Update



Michael

Thanks for the info,
I have two others servers i was going to add webmin to but wasnt sure how to
install from the source. This makes it sound
very easy. again thanks Michael

-Good point, but Webmin is seeing very frequent updates and the PKG's I've
-found of it are usually quite a bit behind. Webmin is very easy to install
-from the sources, so I always recommend to download to most recent version
-from www.webmin.com. Just extract the tarball and run the "setup.sh"
script.

-To enable Webmin's HTTPS mode you'll need to install openssl (an RPM of it
-for RedHat 6.2 will do, or compile it from the sources with "./configure",
-"make", "make test", "make install" ) and you need to install the PERL
module
-Net::SSLeay.

-That can be done with the following command line (issued as root):

-perl MCPAN  -e 'install "NET::SSLeay"'

-Then again ... you can always use Webmins integrated upgrade feature to
-upgrade to a newer version. That should even work for the ones you install
as
-PKG.
