How to Install Webmin in Debian Orerating System

Webmin may be installed by adding the following lines to your apt sources file:

deb http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib deb http://webmin.mirror.sornersettechsolutions.co.uk/repository sarge contrib

Usually, this is added to a separate webmin.list file in /ete/apt/sourees .list.d.

The use of 'sarge' for the release name in the configuration is not a

mistake. Since Webmin was dropped after the Sarge release (Debian \: 3.1), the developers update the repository as itis and haven't bothered changing it to keep up with the Debian code names. However, the

versions available in the repository are compatible with any Debian release since 3.1.

After updating your cache file, Webmin can be installed and maintained using apt-get, aptitude, or Synaptic. Also, ifyou request a Webmin upgrade from within Webmin itself on a Debian system, it will use the proper Debian package to upgrade.
