To uninstall Webmin on CentOS 6.3, you’ll need to remove the installed package and its associated files, and then disable the repository used to install it. Here’s a step-by-step guide to uninstalling Webmin on CentOS 6.3:<\/p>\n

Step 1: Stop the Webmin Service<\/h2>\n

First, check the Webmin version and stop the Webmin service by running the following command:<\/p>\n

\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# rpm -qa webmin\r\nwebmin-1.600-1.noarch\r\n<\/pre>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# sudo service webmin stop\r\n<\/pre>\n
Step 2: Remove the Webmin Package<\/h2>\n
Next, remove the Webmin package using the yum package manager:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# sudo yum remove webmin -y\r\n<\/pre>\n
This command will remove Webmin and its dependencies from your system.<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# sudo yum remove webmin-1.600-1.noarch\r\nLoaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto, priorities\r\nSetting up Remove Process\r\nResolving Dependencies\r\n--> Running transaction check\r\n---> Package webmin.noarch 0:1.600-1 will be erased\r\n--> Finished Dependency Resolution\r\n\r\nDependencies Resolved\r\n\r\n====================================================================================================\r\n Package               Arch                  Version                 Repository                Size\r\n====================================================================================================\r\nRemoving:\r\n webmin                noarch                1.600-1                 installed                 56 M\r\n\r\nTransaction Summary\r\n====================================================================================================\r\nRemove        1 Package(s)\r\n\r\nInstalled size: 56 M\r\nIs this ok [y\/N]: y\r\nDownloading Packages:\r\nRunning rpm_check_debug\r\nRunning Transaction Test\r\nTransaction Test Succeeded\r\nRunning Transaction\r\n  Erasing    : webmin-1.600-1.noarch                                                            1\/1\r\nRunning uninstall scripts ..\r\nSubroutine list_servers redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 92.\r\nSubroutine list_servers_sorted redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 111.\r\nSubroutine get_server redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 143.\r\nSubroutine save_server redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 158.\r\nSubroutine delete_server redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 175.\r\nSubroutine can_use_server redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 188.\r\nSubroutine list_all_groups redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 208.\r\nSubroutine logged_in redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 278.\r\nSubroutine get_server_types redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 303.\r\nSubroutine this_server redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 313.\r\nSubroutine get_my_address redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 332.\r\nSubroutine address_to_broadcast redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 361.\r\nSubroutine test_server redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 375.\r\nSubroutine find_cron_job redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 394.\r\nSubroutine find_servers redefined at \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\/servers\/servers-lib.pl line 407.\r\n  Verifying  : webmin-1.600-1.noarch                                                            1\/1\r\n\r\nRemoved:\r\n  webmin.noarch 0:1.600-1\r\n\r\nComplete!\r\n<\/pre>\n
Step 3: Delete Webmin Configuration Files and Directories<\/h2>\n
Optionally, you may want to remove the Webmin configuration files and directories. To do this, execute the following commands:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# sudo rm -rf \/etc\/webmin\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# sudo rm -rf \/usr\/libexec\/webmin\r\n<\/pre>\n
These commands will delete the Webmin configuration files and its installation directory, respectively.<\/p>\n
Step 4: Disable the Webmin Repository<\/h2>\n
To prevent the Webmin repository from being used in the future, you can disable it. Open the Webmin repository file in a text editor:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# sudo nano \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/webmin.repo\r\n<\/pre>\n
Find the line that says enabled=1 and change it to enabled=0. Save the changes and close the text editor.<\/p>\n
Step 5: Clean Up Yum Cache<\/h2>\n
Finally, clean up the Yum cache to remove any remaining Webmin-related data:<\/p>\n
\r\n[root@centos63 ~]# sudo yum clean all\r\n<\/pre>\n
Commands Mentioned:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • sudo service webmin stop<\/span> – Stop the Webmin service.<\/li>\n
  • sudo yum remove webmin -y<\/span> – Remove the Webmin package and its dependencies.<\/li>\n
  • sudo rm -rf \/etc\/webmin<\/span> – Delete the Webmin configuration files.<\/li>\n
