To Install Webmin 1.720 in Linux Ubuntu (13.04, 13.10, 15.04 Vivid Vervet, Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn, Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr), Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Linux Mint 13 Maya, Pinguy OS 14.04, Elementary OS 0.3 Freya, Elementary OS 0.2 Luna, Peppermint Five, Deepin 2014, LXLE 14.04, Linux Lite 2.0 and debian derivative system, open a new Terminal window and bash (get it?) in the following commands:

wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.710_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i webmin_1.710_all.deb
sudo rm -rf webmin_1.710_all.deb

In case “dpkg” indicates missing dependencies, complete the installation by executing the following command:

apt-get install -f

Access webmin
Now you need to go to http://localhost:10000/

If Debian complains about missing dependencies, you can install them with the command :

sudo apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl apt-show-versions python 

If you are installing on Ubuntu and the apt-get command reports that some of the packages cannot be found, edit /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure the lines ending with universe are not commented out.

Some Debian-based distributions (Ubuntu in particular) don't allow logins by the root user by default. However, the user created at system installation time can use sudo to switch to root. Webmin will allow any user who has this sudo capability to login with full root privileges.
