Hello. I am interested in doing hosting using DSL. I have got apache installed and got webmin ready to install. When I go into root terminal to setup the webmin, I can't type in my password. I can type in everything else but when I get to the last step (entering an admin name and a password) I can enter a username but not a password. I can not type anything except for enter. Someone please help me. Either post back or email me at justinwilliams@Wk.net. Thanks in advance yall.

Are you sure about that? When you type passwords in a linux terminal they are typically not echoed, so it looks like you are typing nothing.

Thanks for your advice. I got the "webmin" installed but I can't access it. It said go to http://localhost:10000/ but I can not access it. I think that it needs to be started but I am unsure how to do this. Sorry for bothering. Thanks in advance.
