Webmin is a free software that is used by system administrators for system administration and configuration of the system where it is web based. Through Webmin, the system administrator can perform their daily tasks such as system administration and server administration through the graphical web-based interface where it is very easy to use while reducing errors. Webmin very suitable for beginners who do not know much about the unix or linux command line. For future reference, I will show how to install Webmin on CentOS 7/RHEL 7/Oracle Linux 7. Current Webmin version is 1.720.

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS final just released on 17th April 2014. Ubuntu 14.04 includes 3.13.0-24.46 Ubuntu Linux kernel. In this article i will show how you can install Webmin on Ubuntu 14.04. Webmin is a free program that allow system administrators to perform system administration and configuration via web-based interface. It require less command line and recommended for those who are not familiar with Debian’s operating system as the Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian’s architecture and infrastructure.

Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Linux. By using webmin at the browser, you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and much more. This post covers the steps to setup Webmin 1.590-1 on CentOS 6.3 using RPM.
[root@centos63 ~]# rpm -Uvh webmin-1.590-1.noarch.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
Operating system is CentOS Linux
1:webmin ########################################### [100%]
Webmin install complete. You can now login to http://centos63.ehowstuff.local:10000/
as root with your root password.
4. Start webmin service and check webmin status :
[root@centos63 ~]# /etc/init.d/webmin start
[root@centos63 ~]# /etc/init.d/webmin status
Webmin (pid 2676) is running
This quick post will show you the steps on installing webmin, the web-based system configuration and administration tool on linux CentOS 5.8 server. There are three alternative way to setup webmin which using RPM, YUM command and using Tar file. After setup webmin, you will be able to do linux system administration task using Graphical User Interface (GUI) which is good for linux newbie who not familiar with command line.
[root@centos58 ~]# rpm -Uvh webmin-1.580-1.noarch.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
Operating system is CentOS Linux
1:webmin ########################################### [100%]
Webmin install complete. You can now login to http://centos58.ehowtuff.local:10000/
as root with your root password.
Option 2 : Setup Webmin using YUM
1. Login to your CentOS server with root privileges. 2. Download and import my GPG key with which the packages are signed, with the commands :
3. To install and update Webmin via RPM through yum, you have to create webmin.repo on /etc/yum.repos.d directory as below:
[root@centos58 ~]# vi /etc/yum.repos.d/webmin.repo
[Webmin]
name=Webmin Distribution Neutral
#baseurl=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum
mirrorlist=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum/mirrorlist
enabled=1
4. Install with yum command :
[root@centos58 ~]# yum install webmin -y
Example :
[root@centos58 ~]# yum install webmin -y

Option 3 : Setup Webmin using Tar File
Before downloading Webmin, please make sure that Perl 5 has been installed on your CentOS 5.8. 1. Download and extract the tar file :
[root@centos58 ~]# cd /tmp
[root@centos58 tmp]# wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.580.tar.gz
[root@centos58 tmp]# tar xzf webmin-1.580.tar.gz
2. Run ./setup.sh to install the webmin on /usr/local/webmin.
[root@centos58 tmp]# cd webmin-1.580
[root@centos58 webmin-1.580]# ./setup.sh /usr/local/webmin
This is just an example and the default admin was admin and the password is password.
[root@centos58 webmin-1.580]# ./setup.sh /usr/local/webmin
