Problem with webmin server in Solaris OS
Hi all,
This is the first time i am using this forum to clear my doubt.
I am using Sun solaris 9 Operating System, I am stuck up with a problem regarding webmin server.I logged in to webmin as system administrator (root)and then clicked change passwords module. It shows the list of users to change the password. The problem is that any user who knows the root password can change the root password without any problem.
So if i want to disallow this, the best option i feel is that users list should not display the name root. How can i do this ?
When i investigated further i found a pearl script called index.cgi , which Display a list of users whose passwords can be changed .Since i am very new to pearl, what lines should i add or remove in this file ? Or is there any other solutions ?
Thanks in advance
