Update to Natty 11.04 & Webmin

After updating my home server to the latest Ubuntu release (Natty / 11.04) I found almost everything worked properly apart from  Webmin refused to let me login. After some investigation, I found that my normal user was deleted. I reset the password via SSH using an included script.

Here’s the command:

$ sudo /usr/share/webmin/changepass.pl  /etc/webmin root new_password

Then, logging in as root user to Webmin I could configure my normal user.

Update on Deluge BitTorrent client (Ubuntu 10.10)

Stopped the service running at boot, because for some reason Deluge was hogging ALL my bandwidth even when no torrents where being downloaded. Not sure why at the moment probably something to do with the router and port forwarding. But as I don’t use it very much I’ll look into this at a later date.
