I have an added bonus to webmin. I use it for users and only assign specific functions to the user. Like changing a password. Works great for that. But I usually config at the command. Tho I do view logs with it. All the logs I need are in a list and easy to access without logging in with ssh. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Server Admin" <admin@sage-one.net> To: "Alan McKay" <alan@quay.net>; <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 12:03 PM Subject: Re: ipfw/pppoe/nat trouble > Alan: Gerry's method on an earlier reply is the way to do it.
