Anyone know a good Webmin user guide for a newbie. Just took the plunge with a dedicated server, now need to learn how to use it LOL!!!
I've used WHM/Cpanel but Webmin is totally new to me. I'm not going to be offering hosting on this server for quite some time, so I've got time to learn, just need pointing in the right direction. Webmins own FAQ's are not terribly helpful to me and am looking for something more "easy-speak".
Anyone have help for a grandad? :dunce:

Webmin is a great tool, but it can be a little tricky cause you have to do everything manually. Theres no create account script that will add everything to bind and apache as Cpanel/WHM does.

I'd be happy to give you some tips on what I remember, just give me an email.

This also belongs in the Control Panel forums ;)

Yes there is goto the webmin page and look under Third-Party Modules/ISP Software there you will find isp4you it does work and it's in perl so adding things to the code is very ez

Might be slightly outdated, but should be good enough to get you going.

I've used it = don't like it.

Theres also no easy bandwidth control addon though. You'll have to use mod_throttle
