In this article we will guide you how to install Webmin on CentOS or RHEL 7<\/em>.
\n 
\n1. To install Webmin<\/strong><\/em> on CentOS<\/strong><\/em>, login to your server via SSH and create a repo for webmin.
\nCreate a new file webmin.repo<\/strong><\/em> in \/etc\/yum.repo.d\/<\/strong><\/p>\n

nano \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/webmin.repo\n<\/pre>\n
and paste the following line.<\/p>\n
[Webmin]\nname=Webmin Distribution Neutral\n#baseurl=http:\/\/download.webmin.com\/download\/yum\nmirrorlist=http:\/\/download.webmin.com\/download\/yum\/mirrorlist\nenabled=1\n<\/pre>\n
2. Download and install webmin gpg key with the following command.<\/p>\n
wget http:\/\/www.webmin.com\/jcameron-key.asc\n<\/pre>\n
import the key<\/p>\n
rpm --import jcameron-key.asc\n<\/pre>\n
3. After importing the key you can now install webmin with the following command.<\/p>\n
yum install webmin -y\n<\/pre>\n
4. Start the webmin services and make it auto start at system startup.<\/p>\n
\/etc\/init.d\/webmin start\nchkconfig webmin on\n<\/pre>\n
5.By default Webmin<\/strong><\/em> listens on port number 10000<\/strong> <\/em>, for security reason and you need to allow port 10000<\/strong><\/em> in your firewall to access webminn:<\/p>\n
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 10000 -j ACCEPT ;\n<\/pre>\n
\/etc\/init.d\/iptables save\n<\/pre>\n
6. Now visit http:\/\/your-ip-address:10000 in\u00a0your browser and you should see the login panel for webmin and it will ask for user and password.
\nNote:<\/strong> Use root username and password for admin. For example in my case:\u00a0http:\/\/192.168.216.17:10000<\/strong><\/em>
