Set up Webmin on CentOS

Webmin is a popular web-based GUI for configuring some of the CentOS server options. You can install a repo so that it will be installed and updated via yum. Instructions below taken from http://www.webmin.com/rpm.html.

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 :

wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
rpm --import jcameron-key.asc

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

All dependencies should be resolved automatically.
