Restoring a backup in Webmin

If you find that a config file on your system has been corrupted, incorrectly edited or mistakenly deleted, it can be easily restored using this module.

The steps to perform a restore are :

Click on the Restore now tab.

Select the module or modules whose config files you want to restore from the Modules to restore menu.
In the Restore from section, enter the path to a local or remote file that was originally created by this module.

To be useful, it must contain backups for the modules that you selected above.

Click the Restore Now button.

If all goes well, a page will be displayed showing the number of modules and files restored.

Files will be restored to their original locations on the system, rather than the paths that are set on the Module Config pages of the selected modules.
