This really should have been posted under the "webmin" forum and not here since those are webmin modules.

As for the help – just who did you assign the modules to?

Howdy,

Do you by chance see it if you log into webmin as root?

I installed the PPTP-Server module just now, and as root, I see it under the "Networking" area.

To install it, I:

  • Logged into webmin as root

  • Went into Webmin -> Webmin Configuration

  • Chose Webmin Modules

  • Chose "Standard module from www.webmin.com"

  • Selected PPP-Server from the list of modules

At that point, it showed up under the Networking section as the root user (though I did log out and back in first, I’m not sure that was necessary).

Also, it’s telling me I need to install the pptpd package, but even without having that installed, the webmin module should still show up.
