How to Install Webmin

Step 1: First you will need to login into your root account via SSH.

Then enter these 4 commands:

yum install wget -y

wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.860-1.noarch.rpm

yum -y install perl perl-Net-SSLeay openssl perl-IO-Tty perl-Encode-Detect

rpm -U webmin-1.860-1.noarch.rpm

Installation can take a few minutes and will depend on your server speed. Once it is complete, you will see a message with your Webmin admin URL.

On CentOS 7, if the URL doesn’t work, it means that you need to open port 10000. You can do this by running this command:

firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=10000/tcp --permanent

firewall-cmd --reload

The Webmin dashboard will open.
