I just installed the latest version of webmin on my CentOs 5 server. I have not used webmin in about 2 years, I can not believe how much the interface has improved. Webmin is a GUI control panel that lets you administer a Linux box.
Here is all you need to do to get it installed:
This will install some dependencies.
yum -y install perl-Net-SSLeay
Install the system:
cd /usr/src
wget http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin-1.380-1.noarch.rpm
rpm -i webmin-1.380-1.noarch.rpm
Once you log in, you will see screens like this, click the image for a larger view:
Congrats to the Webmin team for keeping the product fresh!

Can you install the RPM or does it give you an error?
Did you try 'yum search perl-Net-SSLeay'

Operating system is CentOS Linux
Webmin install complete. You can now login to https://sip.indusphone.com:10000/
as root with your root password.
to install the latest version use:
wget http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin-1.441-1.noarch.rpm
Sorry for the 'simple' question, but...
I'm brand new to Centos, and our new site server is running Centos, so I'm having to do everything via ssh. I can understand the install instructions, but how do I access webmin via firefox or Konqueror remotely?
Thanks for the help in advance..
C Solis:
After you've completed the installation, you should be able to access your webmin panel at http://yourhost.com:10000
Log in as root.
Thank you! Very Helpful!
You didn't say that I need to add a line in the iptables file that allows for tcp connections from port 10000 and restart the iptables.
