Joe,

You may very well be right.  As I was writing that yesterday, I thought to myself, maybe someone with more experience than I should, metaphorically, "slap me upside the head" and tell me I'm wasting my time.

That said, I wanted to see for myself, and given the fact that this is supposed to work (and my generally obsessive nature), I wanted to see for myself.  

I have sufficient knowledge of how Webmin and Apache work to understand that both are just serving up pages and Webmin is most certainly lighter than Apache.  What Apache would allow would be a richer tool set for extending functionality.

I appreciate the time and help offered.  If folks with actual experience using Webmin under Apache feel I'm wasting mine time, don't hesitate to tell me.

Thanks.

I just read through this conversation, and it sounds like you're doing 
all of this because you believe running Webmin under Apache will be 
faster. I very strongly suspect it will be slower.
