No idea why you are getting this problem or using Webmin to update
your box, but I suggest you rethink the idea of only doing updates
"every month or so". You could have the box exposed to an exploit for
a long time, with that schedule. Hopefully someone else on the list
will have a solution for your immediate problem. GL
