Install Webmin on Ubuntu 18.04

Webmin is one of the popular Opensource web hosting control panels. It provides all the major web hosting-related features such as website management, FTP, DNS management, etc. Webmin can be installed on Ubuntu and Debian OS platforms. You can watch the video tutorial for this topic by clicking here. Here I am providing the steps to install it on an Ubuntu 18.04 based server. 

  1. Login to the server via SSH as root.

  2. Update the current OS packages:

    # sudo apt update

    # sudo apt upgrade
  3. The simple way to install Webmin is by adding the official Webmin APT repository to the file '/etc/apt/sources.list' like below:

    # nano /etc/apt/sources.list

    Add the following to the end of the file:
    deb https://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib
  4. Then we need to fetch and install the GPG key:

    # wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
    # sudo apt-key add jcameron-key.asc
  5. Once this is done, install Webmin with the following commands:

    # sudo apt install apt-transport-https
    # sudo apt update
    # sudo apt install webmin
  6. This will resolve all the required dependencies automatically. Please wait for some time and once the installation is completed, you will be able to access the panel with the default port 10000:

    Eg: https://server_IP:10000
