How to install webmin on linux Ubuntu 12.04 the simple way

Quote from kingjj

hi guys,
I realised most of the tutorials on installing webmin with ubuntu server 12.04 did not work for me,so i found a much easier way to do that
for those using oscam with newcamd protocol with port 10000 should change to another port otherwise the method will not work because the default port for webmin is 10000

here we go

Open putty and run the following command

sudo apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl apt-show-versions python

Now you need to download webmin deb package using the following command

wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge…dmin/webmin_1.580_all.deb

Install downloaded package using the following command

sudo dpkg -i webmin_1.580_all.deb

restart your server

This will install webmin now you need to access https://ubuntu-serverip:10000

cheers:caz2:

Thanks for your input buddy but these steps are just repeating what is in the original tutorials ????

Hi Ten, this may be why webmin doesnt work on 12.04, also download link doesnt work, yet you can access from windows

Ive installed oscam with 3 different versions now and webmin never worked on any

try a couple of times,and you will be fine,happened to me
too

Ok thanks, will give it a go

And if you want to change the port of webmin to take out the port 10000 as default edit the file /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf and change the port as you want
