Password in webmin in OpenSuse 11

[opmadhvi]

I have recently loaded OpenSuse 11 along with webmin as system administrator. I am able to open login page of webmin, but I am unable to login to webmin using root password of linux or without enetering any password. The webmin seems to be running in SSL as it is opening only with htpps://localhost:10000/. How to generate a password or edit it in related config file for opening as root user or any other user with full system administartion capabilities.

You're positive you're entering "root" as the username (without quotes) and the exact password? I never had a problem with OpenSUSE and Webmin. I guess you could try to disable ssl. Goto /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf and there's a line in there like ssl=1.

Change it to zero, then run:
/etc/init.d/webmin restart (as root)

That disables ssl so you can access the site by going to cPanel

It probably wont fix your issue, though. You installed it with the rpm file, right?

I have modified entry in miniserve.conf from ssl=1 to ssl=0 & restarted webmin. The webmin page is now loading in normal manner, i.e. with cPanel instead of https://localhost:10000. The problem of logging still remains same.
