Installing the RPM
If you are using the RPM version of Webmin, first download the file from the downloads page , or run the command :
Code:
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.750-1.noarch.rpm

then install optional dependencies with :
Code:
yum -y install perl perl-Net-SSLeay openssl perl-IO-Tty

and then run the command :
Code:
rpm -U webmin-1.750-1.noarch.rpm

The rest of the install will be done automatically to the directory /usr/libexec/webmin, the administration username set to root and the password to your current root password. You should now be able to login to Webmin at the URL http://localhost:10000/. Or if accessing it remotely, replace localhost with your system's IP address.

If you want to connect from a remote server and your system has a firewall installed, seethis page for instructions on how to open up port 10000.

Using the Webmin YUM repository
If you like to install and update Webmin via RPM, create the /etc/yum.repos.d/webmin.repo file containing :


[Webmin]
name=Webmin Distribution Neutral
#baseurl=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum
mirrorlist=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum/mirrorlist
enabled=1


You should also fetch and install my GPG key with which the packages are signed, with the commands :
Code:
wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
rpm --import jcameron-key.asc

You will now be able to install with the command :
Code:
yum install webmin

All dependencies should be resolved automatically
