Eric would probably be best in answering this as I don’t make use of Cloudmin enough to provide too much details on this. I’ll drop him a quick line over IRC to let him know that you need some assistance just in case he doesn’t notice the thread right away. Remain patient
You wouldn’t necessarily need multiple public IP addresses, though for serious server use you would want it.
You could just as easily use private addresses, and if you needed some ports to be accessible from the outside world setup port forwarding with iptables.
Installing a fresh OS requires you to setup an ISO image or DVD as installation media to boot from, in addition to the hard disk image which will host the OS, and then use the Graphical Console option to perform the installation (since there is no reasonable headless way to install a one-off Windows installation, unlike with many Linux distros).

Yes underestand and it is done…
then use the Graphical Console option to perform the installation
but i dont no why i cannot use Graphical console… i just get this error message:
VNC has been configured on this system by Cloudmin, but the VNC server on port 5901 on host system ns1 is not accessible. If it was just enabled, the system will need to be rebooted before VNC is available.
I try to google for solution bot not find something helpful
I have no idea! We’ve never had anyone ask. Cloudmin is usually used for servers that would have no use for USB ports.
I’m guessing KVM probably provides some means of sharing USB ports, but it’s not something Cloudmin would address (though there’s nothing stopping one from adding that configuration manually, assuming it is possible).
What kind of USB device are you trying to use? If it’s a disk, I would suggest mounting it on the host system, and then sharing it via NFS or SMB to the guest systems. That’s how I handle our build virtual machines, so they can all publish to the software repository without having to have their own copy.
For USB passthrough, it looks like you can use the “usbdevice” option to qemu-kvm (which is what Cloudmin uses to start KVM.
So, you’d need to get an option like this into the startup configuration:
-usbdevice host:bus.addr
Where bus and addr are the specific location of the hardware you want to forward. Or you could use the vendor ID and product ID for the specific device in the same format. There is a field for “Additional KVM parameters” in the Advanced KVM Settings section of the Edit System page, where you can add that.
You can get the device ID and location information via the lsusb command.
That links to a Webmin module that can help make translating a little easier (and knows how to send the resulting translation files to Jamie).
However you do it, be sure to backup your work regularly! I’ve occasionally made the mistake of modifying language files and updating Webmin before backing up…losing my changes! The translation module makes it easy to backup what you’re working on (I seem to recall), but I don’t think it does it automatically.
If you ever need help understanding what the English means (and need it re-worded or need to ask clarifying questions), let me know. I’m always happy to help people who are making translations of anything in Webmin, Virtualmin, Cloudmin or Usermin. Translations are awesome!
