I have strange issue with cloudmin when i created new user with "admin" and change the port 22 to custom 2202 , cloudmin not able to reach to hyper visor or VM's . It only login with root only and not accepting new user .
Any suggestion for this problem Its working with default user "root" to get added new vms and kvm hosts but not with other user to enhance security as i don't want we should access kvm host or vm with user "root" instead i would like to add new user for login purpose .

When you say you changed the user, was this the SSH login or the Webmin login?

So you renamed the
root
Unix user on the system toadmin
? Or did you add a new user with UID 0 namedadmin

Hi , i have not renamed the user . I have created new user admin on hyprvisor and I have denied root user via ssh "PermitRootLogin no" so that cloudmin can check status from "admin" user not from root . I have changed the user in password section .This is ssh security and to prevent from any hack during password sniffing . I am getting below message on cloudmin for hosts

Does this new user have permissions to switch to
root
via thesudo
command? Because Cloudmin needs some way to run commands as root on the system..
