Installing the RPM

If you are using the RPM version of Webmin, first download the file from the downloads page , or run the command : wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.620-1.noarch.rpm and then run the command : rpm -U webmin-1.620-1.noarch.rpm The rest of the install will be done automatically to the directory /usr/libexec/webmin, the administration username set to root and the password to your current root password. You should now be able to login to Webmin at the URL http://localhost:10000/. Or if accessing it remotely, replace localhost with your system's IP address.

If you want to connect from a remote server and your system has a firewall installed, see this page for instructions on how to open up port 10000.

Using the Webmin YUM repository
