Working with FC-5, Webmin, Usermin & Virtualmin (GPL) PART-3 USERMIN Rumi, May 23, 2008May 23, 2008 Usermin: Installation Method-1: Step by step installation (Complicated and usually I do not follow) guide available on the followin URL- http://www.linuxjunkies.org/adminstration%20Howto/webminguide/x804.htm Method-2: (My Way): Installation within Webmin. Under “Un-used Modules” from the left frame “Usermin Configuration” hyper link “Install usermin RPM package“ Configuration: Actually there’s nothing much to configure on usermin other than setting up webmail and few links not to show your clients! After installation- it is very hard to locate Usermin within Webmin! but you can find them 🙂 You can find usermin by typing “usermin” from the webmin search box You can directly access the Usermin module by http://IP:10000/usermin But do no access to http://IP:20000 the usual usermin client panel- you can not configure usermin module from here. You can configure once you are logged in to webmin framework. You can customize your usermin whatever fits your need. I did the following from my setups- Usermin Module coniguration > Read Mail Sendmail mail file location = /home/mail Mail storage format for Inbox = Sendmail style single file (mbox) Mail subdirectory style= mail/username Available Modules (see the scrren shot) That’s it!
