What is Webmin?
Webmin is a system administration tool. It also helps you manage servers, such as Apache and MySQL. However, it assumes that all installations are done by
RPM or apt-get. That is not really a setback. Even if you have forgotten the location of an installed directory, you can use whereis or locate command to get it.Download
Download the source tarball,
webmin-1.xxx.tar.gz, or rpm, webmin-1.xxx.noarch.rpm, from www.webmin.com to /home/user directory.Preparation
The usual nag: Commands, except unpack or explicitly stated, will be issued from the source directory and you should know how to get there.
