I updated webmin and now i can't get in because my browser says it has an invalid certificate with the same serial number as another certificate. I can't find where the certificate is located and i've no idea how to generate a new one. In the meantime I've masked app-admin/webmin-1.170-r2, emerged app-admin/webmin-1.160, restored /etc/webmin from a backup and it's working again. $ emerge info Portage 2.0.51-r3 (default-linux/x86/2004.3, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.10-gentoo-r1 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.10-gentoo-r1 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 3200+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.13,sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r5 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.9.3,sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r2,sys-devel/automake-1.6.3,sys-devel/automake-1.7.9,sys-devel/automake-1.4_p6,sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1-r3 Headers: sys-kernel/linux26-headers-2.6.8.1-r1 Libtools: sys-devel/libtool-1.5.2-r7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/bind /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks emergemail fixpackages nostrip notitles sandboxsfperms userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 3dnow S3TC X aac aalib acpi acpi4linux alsa apm arts artswrappersuid audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzlib calendar cddb cdparanoia cdr codecs cscope cups curl curlwrappers dbase devmap divx4linux dmx doc dv dvd dvdr dvdread encode escreen esd exif faac faad fam fbcon ffmpeg flac foomaticdb ftp ggi gif gimp gimpprint gphoto2 gpm gs gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml imagemagick imlib innodb interbase iodbc java javascript jbig joystick jp2 jpeg jpeg2k junit kde libwww live lzw-tiff mad maildir mbox mikmod mime mmx mmx2 mng monkey mono motif mozcalendar mozilla moznocompose moznoirc mp3 mpeg mysql mysqli nas ncurses network nls no_wxgtk1 nocardbus nomac nptl odbc oggvorbis ooo-kde opengl oss pcre pdflib perl png posix postgres ppds python qt quicktime readline rtc samba scanner sdl slang slp sox speex spell sqlite sse ssl svg tcltk tcpd tga theora tiff timidity truetype unicode usb vanilla videos vim-with-x win32 wmf xbase xine xml xml2 xmms xpm xprint xv xvid yv12 zlib linguas_en_GB"
Hmmm, this is very strange. On all three machines I unmasked webmin-1.170-r2 and tried again. Where the original emerge had generated loads of changed files for etc-update, this time there were 2 for the first box, 3 for the second and 7 for the third: Box 1: /etc/webmin/miniserv.pem /etc/webmin/module.infos.cache Box 2: /etc/webmin/miniserv.pem /etc/webmin/module.infos.cache /etc/webmin/sshd/config Box 3: /etc/webmin/miniserv.pem /etc/webmin/module.infos.cache /etc/webmin/heartbeat/config /etc/webmin/htaccess-htpasswd/config /etc/webmin/jabber/config /etc/webmin/sshd/config /etc/webmin/webalizer/config I did a -5 on etc-update, restarted webmin and everything works normally.
The certificate is /etc/webmin/miniserv.pem
This is still a problem for me, and I have no idea how to fix it. Can anyone give me any advice?
Well, chances are you've lost the old cert, so you're going to have to tell your web browser to accept tht new one.
