Changelog

This mostly a bugfix release, including fixes to bugs found during the beta 5.99 release. The final pieces of Virtualmin 6, the installer, virtualmin-config package, and libraries, will be moved into place later today for a “soft launch” of Virtualmin 6 (it’ll be another day before the docs are fully updated to cover the new stuff). Removed support for Qmail+LDAP as a mail server. Unexpected server processes running as domain users are now detected and included in the validation report, and can optionally be automatically terminated....

This relase includes many script installer updates, Chroot jail support for SSH and FPM, warnings for expired SSL certs, domain-level SSL certs for Webmin and Dovecot, and numerous other bugfixes and feature improvements.

This release includes PHP-FPM support, the ability to generate SSHFP DNS records, an option to allow resellers to migrate backups from other control panels, API commands to start and stop script servers, and a bunch of bugfixes and other small features.

Bug fixes release

SSL versions 2 and 3 and TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1 are disabled by default in the Apache configuration for new domains. In the post-installation wizard, if Virtualmin does not know the current MySQL pasword the admin will be prompted to enter it. Added a config option to redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS for new domains (if they have an SSL website enabled). Backups can now be deleted either from the Backup Logs page, or using the delete-backup API command....

Bug fixes release

Added a new script installer for Rainloop version 1.9.4.415. Added the generate-letsencrypt-cert API command, to request and install a cert from Let’s Encrypt. Fixed support for mail server settings autodiscovery for Outlook clients. Added a Virtualmin Configuration setting to request a Let’s Encrypt certificate at virtual server creation time. Improved support for Ubuntu 16 and MySQL 5.7.

Added support for multiple hostnames and automatic renewal of Let’s Encrypt certificates Updated multiple script installers

This is a major new release (thus the 5.0 designator). This release will coincide with changes in the install script happening tonight, to make Authentic Theme the default theme and Filemin the default file manager. There will be some additional announcements about changes in the Virtualmin system as a whole (including instructions for updating your installations to the new defaults, should you want to do so), but, this announcement just covers the virtual-server module itself (which also has major new features and updates)....

This update includes new script installers, fixes a bug when backing up when over quota, adds a button to re-setup a cloud storage provider, support for using the aws command for S3 backups, IDN domain fixes, bugfixes for DKIM setup on CentOS 7, and more.
