Installing Webmin control panel for your CentOS based Linux VPS is very easy, just a few steps done as follows, logged in as ‘root’ on your VPS:<\/p>\n

1) Create the file \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/webmin.repo<\/code> with the contents:<\/p>\n

[Webmin]
\nname=Webmin Distribution Neutral
\n#baseurl=http:\/\/download.webmin.com\/download\/yum
\nmirrorlist=http:\/\/download.webmin.com\/download\/yum\/mirrorlist
\nenabled=1
\ngpgcheck=0
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

2) Run the following to install the important SSL Dependencies for Webmin:<\/p>\n

yum -y install perl-Net-SSLeay<\/code><\/p>\n

3) Install Webmin itself, which will pre-configure itself so you can login to Webmin as the ‘root’ user, with the current root user’s password:<\/p>\n

yum -y install webmin<\/code><\/p>\n

4) It will run Webmin, so you can then login as ‘root’ (with the existing root user’s password) at https:\/\/your-VPS-IP-address:10000<\/p>\n

These instructions are pretty much as per Webmin’s site itself says<\/a> too.<\/p>\n
