[Bug 748615] Re: Login fails on Webmin

[Steve Langasek]

I don't see anything here that describes a bug in sudo; webmin seems to
simply not support thedefault sudo setup included in Ubuntu.  Sounds
like something you'll need to take up with webmin upstream.

** Changed in: sudo (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid

Title:
  Login fails on Webmin

Status in “sudo” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: sudo

  Performed clean install of ubuntu-11.04-beta1-server-amd64 with only ssh and LAMP.
  Installed Webmin version 1.540 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/webadmin/).
  Opened web browser from another machine on local network and connected to webmin server on port 10000.
  Entered my ubuntu user name and password.
  Received  this from Webmin server: Login failed. Please try again.
  This happens every time with known good user name and password until it blocks the connecting IP address for multiple failed attempts.
  Tested with the previous version of Webmin and have same problem.
  I forced a downgrade of sudo package from 1.7.4p4-5ubuntu5 to 1.7.2p7-1ubuntu2.1 and thereafter login to Webmin server was successful.
