Hello - Webmin isn't only available to the localhost by default, although it could be made that way. By default Webmin sets up to run on HTTP port 10000 but most admins, and by default if you have SSL installed and use Mandrake (and probably others) Webmin will run via HTTPS.

I'm currently doing an security audit on a company as a "newbie". After scanning the host I leared that several ports were open - including the Webmin Port. I tried to connect via Browser to this port but the operation timed out. I believe that it is due to the fact that the Webmin Service is only available to the localhost. But I am wondering why I was able to connect with telnet and download the login-page of Webmin. A simple wget would do the same thing. Can anybody give me some advice and explain why this is that way? Thx a lot in advance Kind regards -- -------------------------------------------------------------- WU Fei Liang Computer & Media Security University of Applied Sciences 4232 Hagenberg, Austria [ Intership ] weigl interservice - http://www.weigl.de [ Mail work ] f.wu () weigl de [ Mail priv ] wu_fei_liang () cms ac [ Public-Key ] http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=0xC5633638&op=index -------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
