In both the 32-bit and 64-bit Mageia 2 RC you have to double install webmin to get it to work. To reproduce do a clean new install of M2RC and after setting up the repos MCC -> Software Management -> Install & Remove Software Install webmin. Install will appear to go smoothly and infact the webmin icon will appear in the tools menu but will not open a browser and launch. Webmin will not appear in: MCC-> System -> Manage Systems services Attemping to point a browser to http://localhost:10000 gets no response. Even a reboot at this point will not work. After reboot back into MCC -> Software Management -> Install & Remove Software delele webmin. When the delete is finished reinstall webmin again and all is well including the line in MCC-> System -> Manage Systems services and accessing webmin in a browser with: http://localhost:10000 and the icon in the tools menu.
seems it was never ported to systemd, (maybe we should drop it as it certainly contain CVE ...) as a workaround you can use /etc/init.d/webmin start stop etc

I actually don't have a problem leaving it as it is right now. Webmin is a very important network tool so I would not recommend dropping it. Lets think about it during the Mageia 3 Cauldron. Thanks for the info.
ok after a quick check seems there is no CVE so no worry :) (I was thinking on that since there is no real maintainer)
A new test install this morning tells me that this is now fixed. I've changed status to RESOLVED FIXED. Thanks all.
Status: NEW => RESOLVEDResolution: (none) => FIXED
