Introduction
Webmin is an open source, web-based system configuration tool written primarily in Perl. Thanks to its web nature, Webmin can be used to control your system remotely from any computer running a browser. It allows you to control numerous aspects of your system's configuration, such as managing users, installing additional software, configuring services, controlling access, and monitoring system activity.
In this chapter, we'll focus on installing Webmin and then demonstrate how it can be used to perform the tasks related to installing, upgrading, and running other software on your system.
