# (aptitude install libcrypt-ssleay-perl)
%%

===Download & Install===
Download rpm or tgz from http://www.webmin.com

==CentOS / Oracle Enterprise / Red Hat RHEL==
%%
# rpm -ivh webminXXX.rpm
%%

==Debian/Ubuntu==
%%
# tar zxvf webminXXX.tgz
# cd webminXXX
# ./setup.sh /opt/webmin
%%

==Reinstall==
If you installed without SSL and wish you had then
%%
# service webmin stop
# mv /opt/webmin /opt/webminold
# mv /etc/webmin /etc/webminold
%%

Re-install Net_SSLeay, rerun setup.sh and remove backup files
%%
# rm -rf /opt/webminold
# rm -rf /etc/webminold
%%

==Reset password==
First find location of changepass.pl and location of miniserv.conf
%%
# updatedb
# locate changepass.pl
# locate miniserv.conf
%%

then run /location/of/changepass.pl with the parameter of path to the directory of /location/of/miniserv.conf i.e
%%
# /usr/local/webmin/changepass.pl /usr/local/etc/webmin/ admin <newpassword>
%%

===Uninstall===
==RPM==
%%# rpm -e webmin%%

==tgz==
%%# /etc/webmin/uninstall.sh%%
or
%%# /opt/webmin/uninstall.sh%%

==webmin without a root account==
On ubuntu and xubuntu there is NO root password so you won't be able to login to the webmin webpage
%%
$ sudo updatedb
$ sudo locate changepass.pl
$ sudo locate miniserv.conf
%%

Change your working path to the webmin binary install directory and then run changepass.pl:
%%
$ cd <webmin-install-dir>
$ sudo ./changepass.pl <webmin-config-dir> root <newpassword>
%%
