A new version of the program has been released in the form of 1,160 on the Webmin homepage. The update is like gzip- or rpm package to take down. Webmin is a tool that makes it possible to maintain a Unix-based operating system via a web interface. Among other things, it is possible to manage files, maintain Apache and set up user accounts. You can also change settings for MySQL and file shares, for example. The changelog of the 1.60 release looks like this:

Added the new Sarg Squid access reporting module. Thanks to Omar Armas for sponsoring its development.

Updated all core modules to no longer output [hr] lines at the top and bottom of every page. These are now generated by the selected theme, and not used by the default MSC theme.

Added support for NFSv4 to the Disk and Network Filesystems module.

In the MySQL and PostgreSQL modules, all databases can now be backed up at once, either manually or on a configured schedule.

Added the ability to delete multiple users at once to the Users and Groups module.

Added support for MD5 encryption for Webmin passwords, to avoid the 8-character effective password length limit.

The BIND module can now create and edit delegation-only zones.

Fixed a security problem that can occur at installation time only, if the /tmp/.webmin directory has already been created by a malicious user.

When PAM is used for Unix authentication, expired passwords are now detected and the user is prompted to select a new password (if this feature is enabled on the Webmin Configuration module).
