I recently loaded Linux Mandrake and am having problems trying to find Webmin.
And while were at it, what is the default directory used for apache to store its files?

WebMin should be accessible from http://localhost:10000
As for the last question, I guess you are talking about the document root? If so, have a look in 'linuxconf' under services (or something like that) you will find an entry for webserver/apache which holds info on where directoies are and where config files are stored.
One tip here is to leave the servers document root alone, and put your html files in ~/public_html/ (a subdir in your home dir named 'public_html'). Access your own pages from http://localhost/~username
Cheers :)

Not sure about Mandrake but it's moved around a bit in the versions of Redhat from what I've seen (by default I mean. Your httpd.conf file should have a record of where it is)
In my one version of RH 6.1, it was /home, in RH 7.1 the default was /var/www
Hmm, now that I think about it, its probably the different versions of Apache and not RH hehe
Man, its too early and I need a coffee :p

AHHHH, should have got a different Linux! Ok, I tried localhost:10000, didn't work. It says it has webmin in control panel, ain't there.
Hmmm, If it wasn't so hard to download Redhat off their site, I would have that.

Does rpm -q webmin should that webmin is installed?
If so, then start Netscape and try either
https://localhost:10000/
or http://localhost:10000/

On mandrake it's https://localhost:10000/
If that still doesn't work try "/etc/init.d/webmin restart" and see what it says.

I had the same problem with webmin on Drake 8.0, port 10000 is being used by another program. Find the webmin.conf file and change it to use port 10001 and then restart webmin and then point your browser to https://localhost:10001 and you should be fine.
