The oldest and most secure way to manage a server is by using the Console or an SSH client and do all work through SSH. Using Webmin, a graphical web-based gui, administrators can easily maintain resources from remote locations where SSH may not be viable.
Installing Webmin on Linux Redhat
Step 1
- Login to the server using the root account
Step 2
- Copy the webmin-1.xxx.rpm from the Redhat Installation CD or download the latest version at http://www.webmin.com/download.html
- Note: When downloading from the web use the command ‘wget’
- ex: ‘wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.330-1.noarch.rpm’
- Wait for the download to complete. Results should look like this:

Step 3
- Install the RPM using ‘rpm –Uvh webmin-x.xxx.rpm’

Setup is now complete. You can access Webmin by opening your browser and pointing it to http://ServerHostName:10000 or http://localhost:10000
Login using the root username and password.
