Hello,

I got a small problem running webmin. When i create a virtual host, it users the default user and group which is "apache"

That can be a problem when i have more the one user using the same usernames.

If it possible to configure webmin to be able to assign each virtualhost your own username and group?

I don't think that there is a way to have webmin use a different user/group per virtualhost, but you could edit the config after you create a VH, and change the user/group.

hmm, that's not good, cause i could just the entry into the config file without webmin.

also it doesn't create the the documentroot if it doesn't exist.

Personally, I would never use webmin to control apache. At most if I needed it, I'd use it for global config stuff. It's a lot easier to edit the config by hand to create VH's and what not. If you need a control panel to do this sort of thing, you should look into a hosting control panel, rather than a server one.
