Replace 'default' in documentation for DKIM

Submitted by yngens on Wed, 04/18/2018 - 19:39

The documentation page for DomainKeys Identified Mail on https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/email/dkim states:

Do NOT enter `default` as this can trigger a bug in the current Virtualmin release which deletes the `/etc/default` directory

However when I go to Virtualmin to enable DKIM (10000/virtual-server/dkim.cgi) the un-desired default is there by default! What are the odds that every single Virtualmin user will read the documentation page prior to enabling DKIM? Pretty low I would say. So why you just don't replace that word on Virtualmin's UI with the current year or something else?

Hi,

Is this still true? I have "default" as the selector on our server, I did not change anything when I enabled DKIM, and the selector value cant be changed, it looks like its is hard coded to "default"?!

Body: View changes

If once enabled to get it change, you have to disable DKIM and set everything again. You can't change the default on the fly.

Thank you yngens!

Can someone from Virtualmin confirm that this is still a issue, and since I have "default" as the selector (pre selected by Virtualmin, BTW) I would like to know in what scenario this bug can be triggered. And Should I change the selector name?

That's a long-since fixed but - I'll update the docs to remove it.
