I asked Jamie to add Whitebox to the supported OS's and he did.

Yes, that is correct. That is how Jamie set it up to recognize Whitebox. 
Since they are essentially the same OS, that was the cleanest and 
easiest way for him to do it. I suspect many modules look for a 
recognizable OS, RHEL being obvious and Whitebox may in fact require 
LOTS of changes.

As I've rolled through other modules, I see reference to Redhat in those 
as well and setups that seem to have taken info from the main Webmin 
install.

Thanks to Jamie for adding Whitebox to his code, even if it does tell us 
we are running RHEL.

BTW, I personally think Webmin is now ready for primetime. There is a 
lot to work through to get a setup the way 'you' like it, but wow, the 
addition of virtualmin has made it really sweet for a hosting company.
