Webmin Management Interface

Webmin is a third-party web based interface that simplifies the process of managing a Linux system. Webmin was written for use by people who have some Linux experience, but are not familiar with the intricacies of system administration. It lets you perform these tasks through an easy to use web interface and automatically updates all of the required configuration files for you. This makes the job of administering your system much easier.

Webmin is accessible through a web browser, you can log in to it from any system (client computer or a mobile device) that is connected to your network. It is easier to use over the network than locally using other graphical configuration programs.

All recent versions of Webmin may be freely distributed and modified for commercial and non-commercial use. You can find more information on the Webmin web pages.
