52.4. Editing a Webmin User

You can change the username, password, language, or any other attribute of a Webmin user (including the one you are logged in as) using this module. To edit a user, follow these steps:

1.
Click on his username on the module's main page. This will bring you to an editing form, similar to the one shown in Figure 52.2.

2.
By default, the password will be left unchanged. To edit it, select Set to from the Password field menu and enter a new password into the field next to it.

3.
Change any of the other fields on the form, as explained in Section 52.3 “Creating a New Webmin User”. You can even move the user to another group, which will cause him to lose access to all modules in the original group and need to gain access to those in the new group.

If you are editing yourself, Webmin will not allow you to take away access to the Webmin Users module. This is to protect you from locking yourself out of the module and not being able to grant yourself access back again.

4.
When you are done, click the Save button to apply the changes immediately. If the username or password was changed, the user is currently logged in, and Webmin is not in session authentication mode, the user will have to log in again.

You can delete a user by clicking the Delete button at the bottom of the editing form, which will also take effect immediately. Webmin will not allow you to delete yourself.
