Webmin Install

[Kimball Larsen]

On the Webmin website, there are detailed instructions on how to make
ssl work that specifically address this issue:

http://www.webmin.com/ssl.html

quote: "To install the module, use the commands :
  	tar xvzf Net_SSLeay.pm-x.yy.tar.gz
  	cd Net_SSLeay.pm-x.yy
  	perl Makefile.PL
  	make install
	If you have installed OpenSSL from the RPM, you may need to run perl
Makefile.PL /usr in order to find the OpenSSL library properly."

so all you should need to do is this:
perl Makefile.PL /usr

instead of this:

perl Makefile.PL

Good luck!
