I assumed people were talking about http://www.webmin.com.  My point was, 
if there's already security/authentication stuff built into Webmin, maybe 
it would make sense to migrate MythWeb to a Webmin module so you don't 
have to bother with the the low-level user access stuff...  But I don't 
know enough about how Webmin works.
