How to setup and configure Webmin

Install Webmin

Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Unix. Using any modern web browser, you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and much more.  Webmin removes the need to manually edit Unix configuration files like /etc/passwd, and lets you manage a system from the console or remotely. Currently there is no Webmin package in the Ubuntu repositories. This tutorial will explain how to Install Webmin in Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex

You can install webmin for your server web interface to configure apache2,mysql,FTp servers and many more.Now we will see how to install webmin in Ubuntu 8.10

Preparing your system

Install pre-requisits

First you need to install the following packages (This is a one line command)

sudo aptitude install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl 
libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl

Download Main Package

Now download the latest webmin using the following command or from here:

wget http://garr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin_1.441_all.deb

Install Main Package

Now we have webmin_1.441_all.deb package install this package using the following command:

sudo dpkg -i webmin_1.441_all.deb

This will complete the installation. Ubuntu in particular don’t allow logins by the root user by default. However, the user created at system installation time can use sudo to switch to root. Webmin will allow any user who has this sudo capability to login with full root privileges.

Now you need to open your web browser and enter the following

https://your-server-ip:10000/

Now you should see similar to the following Screen

This is very Easy to configure most of the servers and Enjoy your new Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex LAMP Server.
