I have re-installed R5A22 at least 4 times and once on a different HDD and everytime I setup Webmin I get the following:
I can log into Webmin just fine (I followed the Wiki for Webmin). I can click on all the tabs available for the different types of modules. But... when I click on a module I get:
Access denied : User root is not allowed to use the XXXX module
Where XXXX is the module name. It doesn't matter the module, it happens on all of them!
If anyone knows how to fix this PLEASE let me know. If there is a SAFE way to unintall Webmin and re-install let me know.
I had R5A16 working just fine with Webmin and I followed the same steps.
Thanks.

Any help would be great!

what exactly do you need webmin so badly for?
I'll admit at least I didn't even test webmin on these newer versions as It's not turned on by default anyways, and I never use it unless I have to go digging in the database, which I haven't had to do since the updates to the hdtv stuff.
ok just tested and it appears to be working fine here, not sure why it's not working for you.

Mainly for LVM admin. Plus, since I can get it to work in a16 I would like to get it to work in a22.
I have a16 back up and running the way I want it so I guess I will stick with it for now.

Hi,
You may have a bad cd burn or your download hiccuped. I am running A22 with Webmin, samba and a bunch of other stuff with no trouble with any of it. My daughter is presently enjoying a game of gcompris on my A22 test machine and everyone thinks it is just a PVR 
I have a couple of issues with dvd burn, low signal on hdtv causing problems but all basicly minor. Cecil and his team are awsome and will catch those little things soon I suspect.
At this rate of improvements, when they release an official beta version you best open all the doors and windows because it will other wise blow the roof away!
Thanks
Mike

Here is my first version of my script. It works and I am working on another one with a little more intelligence, but you should be able to get away with this one.
Just remember to edit the password and ip range to your personal preferences.
Code:
#Set webmin defaults and start automatically
# Change the webmin password to "mythtv"
/usr/share/webmin/changepass.pl /etc/webmin root mythtv
# IP address or range to allow access to
# Modify to suit your network
# This will allow all computers with an IP of 192.168.0.x
ip=192.168.0.0
#Set new allowed listing
newip="allow=127.0.0.1 "$ip
if ! grep -q $ip /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf ; then
mv /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf /etc/webmin/miniserv.old
cat /etc/webmin/miniserv.old | \
sed -e "s/allow=127.0.0.1/$newip/g" > /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
update-rc.d webmin defaults
else
echo "IP $ip already allowed access"
fi
#Start Webmin now
/etc/init.d/webmin start

I have always found that webmin is very useful but a little frustrating to setup. I have found that uninstalling the debian version and installing from the tar version downloaded from the webmin site is often faster than fiddling with the installed version.
I like to play my mp3 files through the Mythbox and I setup a nfs share to my mp3 server so I don't have to store the mp3s on the mythbox. Webmin is great for stuff like that.

The latest...
I downloaded the ISO again. Burned to CD. Re-installed.
AND STILL the problem!!!!!!!!!!!
The only thing I am doing different from the a16 and the a22 install is when I install a16 I use the "expert" mode to boot the kernel and on a22 I do the "tv" mode to boot the kernel on the install.
Don't know if this matters. Don't think it does...
I'll keep trying.

I have used Webmin since version R5A12 and have never had an issue, has always worked for me and this script I have I developed for R5A16 and has been tested to work in R5A22 not only by myself.
Obviously there is something a little astray, as I only use the TV option and as I said never had a prob.
