Webmin is an open source web interface for Linux servers which helps you take control of all technical aspects as well as all services on your server. It can be incredibly useful for people who have little knowledge of SSH or Linux itself, since many services can be installed with the click of a few buttons. To install Webmin follow these instruction:
Note: You will need root access to the server to be able to do this.
1) Issue the following command via SSH:
Code:
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-x.xxx-x.noarch.rpm
(Replacing x.xxx-x with the corresponding Webmin version.)
2) Once the file has been downloaded, issue this command:
Code:
rpm -U webmin-x.xxx-x.noarch.rpm
Give it a couple of minutes, a few messages will come up saying what version of Linux the server is running, then finally how to login to Webmin. If it doesn't display the login details, they would normally be the following:
Address: http://<server_ip>:10000
Username: root username
Password: root password
