Download Webmin 1,280

Lautie informed us that he had been notified by email of the release of version 1,280 of Webmin. With this program a Unix-like system can be maintained and administered from a web browser. For example, it is possible to manage user accounts, change settings for Apache, MySQL and DNS, and create file shares. Webmin consists of a simple web server supplemented with various cgi programs, all written in Perl 5. The software is published under BSD license and is available in different flavors from this page to download. The changelog for this release looks like this:

This release includes the following changes:

• Added the Simple Blue theme, a less graphics-heavy design which may eventually become the default. This theme takes advantage of changes in many modules to use highlighting on table rows.
• Updated the Apache module to support version 2.2.0.
• Updated the various operating-specific NFS server modules to support mass deletion of exports, and to internationalize those that were using hard-coded text strings.
• Updated various modules to allow deletion of multiple objects (such as table fields, Samba shares, PostgreSQL grants, Squid ACLs and so on) at once.
• Added configuration options to the Read User Mail module for the date format, pager arrow locations, timezone and separate message window mode.
• Updated the MySQL module to support views in MySQL version 5.
• Enhanced the System and Server Status module to allow the selection of multiple hosts for each monitor, added a monitor type for testing an SQL server, and updated the Network Traffic monitor to support FreeBSD.
• A bunch of other bug fixes and small features.
