This tutorial will cover Webmin RMP download and install with dependencies. Lets began the steps.

  • For download go to the official download page https://www.webmin.com/download.html

  • Find the section RPM suitable for Redhat, Fedora, CentOS, SuSE or Mandrake Linux, because we are going to install at CentOS 8

cd /tmp
wget https://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.981-1.noarch.rpm

  • If the wget command not found then please run the below command for install wget

dnf update -y
dnf install -y wget

  • For install please follow the below commands

cd /tmp
dnf install -y perl perl-Net-SSLeay openssl perl-Encode-Detect
dnf localinstall -y webmin-1.981-1.noarch.rpm
