What's more fun than a barrel of monkeys? A barrel of monkeys with a web management interface, of course.

  1. Webmin is the most popular web-based systems management UI for Linux, UNIX, and Mac OS X systems. With 3.5 million downloads each year, Webmin makes management and delegation of most common system administration tasks available in a friendly web-based UI.

You're probably thinking, 'Oh great, another tool to learn,' but Webmin is different. It's a web-based Linux management tool that streamlines your Linux management tasks to a few clicks, dropdowns, and prompted fill-in-the-blank fields, which untangles the web of complexity associated with common applications such as Apache, Perl, and Sendmail. Webmin enables you to manage your Linux system's hardware and software, native and third-party applications, Webmin itself, and even log in with a web-based text terminal for those command-line purists.

My favorite thing about Webmin is that I don't have to learn every minute detail of an application to be able to administer it. And setting up and configuring databases, such as MySQL, is a snap.

It's easy to love Webmin because of its ease of installation, its well-organized layout, its extensive list of supported applications, and its support for more than 80 Linux distributions. I install it on every Linux system I manage and have for more than 20 years. My favorite thing about Webmin is that I don't have to learn every minute detail of an application to be able to administer it. And setting up and configuring databases, such as MySQL, is a snap. In fact, it's my favorite method of working with MySQL. And that's a testament to Webmin's beauty and power because I'm somewhat of a command-line bigot.

Installing Webmin

More Linux resources

If you're a purist, you can download the tarball from webmin.com, but doing so doesn't give you that much extra control over options. You can choose where to place a few files, but save yourself the effort on RHEL, CentOS, and Fedora by installing the RPM:

$ wget https://www.webmin.com/download/rpm/webmin-current.rpm

$ sudo rpm -Uvh webmin-1.XXX-x.noarch.rpm Install silverlight on mac computer.

InstallWebminerpool

If your system doesn't have Perl, then you'll have to satisfy that dependency before installing Webmin. You might also have to install the Encode::Detect Perl module before installing Webmin:

Webmin

$ sudo yum install perl-Encode-Detect

Once installed, the installation script directs you to your new Webmin instance at http://<servername>:10000. Log in with your system's root password.

You can change the port, username, and password on the Webmin Configuration option (discussed later). Please do make these changes to the username and password. Plantronics usb devices driver.
