Installing Webmin in Debian Etch

HOME | SPAMASSASSIN | IPTABLES

Webmin is a must for the small site webmaster. It's secure, easy to use and very easy to install.

In debian, edit /etc/apt/sources.list
add the following line:

deb http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib

Save sources.list then update

#apt-get update
You should see a short download of the package names for webmin.
Then install it:
#apt-get install webmin

Now login to webmin on port 10000, on your WINDOWS or LINUX Desktop like this:

https://localhost:10000 or https://internaladapterIP:10000

If you have NAT it will work out of the box on internal network connections unless port 10000 has been blocked.
