i tried every possible way, but when i want to setup a new domain and a virtual server for it, Virtualmin gives me an errors saying, it cant create the group for the "Group for mailbox users". it doesnt matter, if i enter the information by hand or let Virtualmin create it automatically. the funnny thing is, it will say it can't create the group, but the group is created!
i am using the latest version of Webmin and Usermin on SuSE 9.3, PHP 5, mySQL 4.1.x and of course latest version of Virtualmin. Hope somebody will have an answer or a fix for this, since it really doesnt make sense to first create a virtual server by hand and then import it to Virtualmin, which i had to do now several times. Other than that Virtualmin is running smooth and it is a great help to administrate web servers.
no idea anybody?
Hi , I am running Fedora Core #4 and am not getting your problem. Apart from that I am a complete newby myself and you will find several posting of mine one the site.
See the response to bugtracker #172 in the closed section.
D'UH
didnt look at the bug tracker section!!!
thanks for the info. never thought nscd would cause this problem at all!
I've added a FAQ for this question, as it has come up a couple of times:

i am pretty sure other SuSE users might have the same problem.
really, never thought of nscd to be the cause this "bug".
Hi,
I am getting the same error
********************************************
* Creating home directory .. *
* .. done *
* *
* Creating Unix group exampledomain .. *
* Failed to create Unix group! *
********************************************
I turned off nscd from Webmin Bootup and Shutdown on bootup and also terminated the process, I checked using the Running Processes module and the process is no longer there.
I also shutdown the process from command line using nscd --shutdown.
I still get the same error!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Gaurav Misra
I am using Webmin 1.260 and VirtualMin 2.610 on OpenSuse 10.0.0
P.S. I was able to create Virtual Servers on Webmin 1.250

It only happens when I try to store users and groups in an LDAP database.
I've checked my LDAP settings, I can add Users and Groups throught the LDAP Users and Groups Moudle and also from Other computers on the network using various Java and Windows Clients.
Also when I check the LDAP Users and Groups Module it shows the group that Virtualmin thinks it failed to create.
Is there a nscd equivalent service for LDAP too ;)?
Thank you,

Thank you,
Webmin's LDAP Users and Groups correctly creates Users and or groups.
When I user Virtualmin I get the group creation but the user never gets created.
What objectClass properties are required by virtualmin using Ldap?
Thanks for Your help
