I just installed webmin and required apps and added my ip to the allow list in miniserv.conf but when i browse to the ip using IE i get HTTP 403 forbidden:•This website requires you to log in
but i never got a prompt to enter the username and password for root. tried it in forefox also to see if it was a setting there but did the same thing. Rebooted serveral times and changed ports with same result. I did have plugui installed but i removed that to make sure it wasnt conflicking.

I have looked there as well as there wiki site and dont see anything relating to it. The installation doc seemed straight forward so i dont know why its not giving me the login box.

Look and edit the bottom line of /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
When you do get prompt for username and password, it may be the stock one for root

Thats the thing i never get a prompt to enter credentials, it goes straight to the HTTP error. I have edited the Allowed= and entered my ip address.
