Webmin is a fantastic tool for administering many aspects of your server such as users, groups, cron job etc. The greatest part of webmin is that it abstracts much tedious command-line work from Linux server administration.
The first step is to find out what the latest version of webmin is numbered. You can do that by pointing your browser at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/webadmin/files/webmin/
At the time of writing the most recent version of webmin is 1.620 – if there is a more recent version available the adjust the following commands.
Install the prerequisites/dependencies:
apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl apt-show-versions python
Get the install file:
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.620_all.deb
Install the package:
dpkg -i webmin_1.620_all.deb
That’s it! You can not login to webmin on https://YOUR-SERVER-NAME-OR-IP:10000
