Webmin is a free, open-source web-based control panel that allows you to manage various aspects of your server, such as user accounts, DNS settings, and more. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Webmin on POP! OS Latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
To begin, we need to add the Webmin repository to our system. Open the terminal and enter the following command:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Add the following line at the end of the file:
deb https://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib
Save and exit the file.
We need to install the Webmin GPG key to verify the packages we will install. Enter the following commands in the terminal:
wget https://download.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
sudo apt-key add jcameron-key.asc
Now that we have added the Webmin repository and installed the GPG key, we can update our system and install Webmin. Enter the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install webmin
This will install all required packages and dependencies.
To access the Webmin control panel, open your web browser and navigate to https://localhost:10000. You will be prompted to enter your system's root credentials.
Once you have logged in, you can begin managing your server using the Webmin control panel.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Webmin on your POP! OS Latest system. You can now use Webmin to manage your server and perform various administrative tasks.
