This beta version includes all the features that will be in the 1.430 release, such as a new TCP-wrappers module, Greek, Catalan and Dutch translation updates, OSX Leopard user and group support, many BIND improvements and much more.

  • Webmin Core

    • Many Greek translation updates, thanks to Vagelis Koutsomitros.
    • Catalan translation updates by Jaume Badiella.
  • BIND DNS Server

    • The default TTL for multiple zones can now be changed on the Update Records in Zones page.
    • When adding a cluster slave server, multiple views can be entered to have slave zones created in all of them.
    • Record names or values entered like ns.foo.com in the domain foo.com automatically have a . added to make them absolute as the user presumably expected, rather than being coverted to ns.foo.com.foo.com.
    • Update serial number (by default) when editing records manually.
    • Try downloading root zone files from the IP for rs.internic.net if the hostname cannot be resolved, to avoid catch-22 problem.
    • Access control lists are now automatically re-ordered to handle dependencies.
  • Scheduled Cron Jobs

    • Disable time and day lists when ‘All’ is selected, to indicate that they are un-usable.
  • DHCP Server

    • Support the new configuration file format for custom options, as used in DHCPd version 3.
  • Disk and Network Filesystems

    • SMBFS authentication credentials can be stored in a separate file, thanks to a patch by Rob Shinn.
  • MySQL Database Server

    • Display the number of tables and records created when executing SQL for a restore.
  • Postfix Mail Server

    • Properly handle multiple reject_rbl_client DNS domains on the SMTP Client Restrictions page.
  • Running Processes

    • Corrected physical memory display on FreeBSD.
    • On Linux systems with the ionice command, the IO scheduling class and priority of running processes can be edited.
  • Webmin Servers Index

    • Allow the Backup Configuration Files module to save and restore Webmin server details.
  • Squid Proxy Server

    • Fixed the Calamaris page for newer versions.
  • System and Server Status

    • Allow saving of remote Webmin monitors when the remote host is down.
      Added a new monitor type for checking the expiry and validity of SSL certificates in a local file or on any SSL website.
  • TCP Wrappers

    • First version of this module, for configuring IP access control for a range of servers.
  • System Time

    • The default NTP sync time is now set randomly instead of at midnight, and any existing automatic sync done at midnight is changed to a random time. This reduces load on public NTP servers.
  • Users and Groups

    • The option to force a password change at the next login is available for new users, if a default ‘Maximum days’ is set on the Module Config page or if running Linux.
  • Webmin Configuration

    • On Linux systems, the IO scheduling class and priority for Webmin Cron jobs can be set on the Advanced Options page.
