[webmin-l] File Locking - Custom commands / File Editor

Hi,

New to this mail list, long time & big-time fan of Webmin!

Using file editor, files being edited don't seem to be locked. Is this expected behaviour or is it a bug?

Example: Two people open a file to edit (in this case, /home/servers/xymon/etc/hosts.cfg) at the same time - both people can edit the file at the same time however once one person saves the file, the other persons changes will be overwritten or not saved. There is no message or indicator around another being in the file.

Currently we have had to implement a very manual work-around to facilitate multiple people editing this file and I was hoping there was a way to better facilitate this.

Webmin version : 1.953
Webmin Config : File Locking = Set to : Lock all files
OS : Centos 6.10
Browser : Chrome


Kind Regards,

Mark Rankin
