Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Unix/. Using any modern web browser, you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and much more. Webmin removes the need to manually edit Unix configuration files like /etc/passwd, and lets you manage a system from the console or remotely you can also create backups for the system and restore.
Today we will show you how to install webmin in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.
1- Before to install webmin we need first to install some dependencies

I really appreciate this tutorial as I'm loading up multiple virtual machines with different setups. I do have a question though.
I get a warning every time I load the page in chrome. Any idea what that could be?

I had a really nice comment here but I failed the captcha and it reloaded it blank. I appreciate this tutorial very much. I do have a question though. Any idea how to remove the ssh warning when opening webmin admin with chrome?
