Accessing Webmin

  • To access Webmin, open your favorite web browser, enter HTTPSas protocol, enter your server IP address and use 10000 as a port number.

https://YOUR-IP-ADDRESS:10000

By default, Webmin uses a self-signed SSL certificate so your web browser will warn you that the connection is not secure. You can accept the self-signed SSL certificate and proceed to the log in screen.

The administration username which you can use to sign in is set to root and the password is your current root password. In the Webmin dashboard, you can see some basic information about your system and recent logins. The modules and services which you can manage through Webmin are listed on the left panel.
