You can easily install webmin control panel on your (VPS) Virtual Private Servers or Dedicated Servers. Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Unix. Using any browser that supports tables and forms (and Java for the File Manager module), you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and so on. You can install Webmin on your linux server via SSH or root access within minutes. It can be incredibly useful for people who have little knowledge of SSH or Linux itself, since many services can be installed with the click of a few buttons. It’s a Webmin installation tutorial. To install Webmin follow these instruction:
Note: You will need root access to the server to be able to do this.
1) Log into SSH client and Issue the following command via SSH:

wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-x.xxx-x.noarch.rpm

(Replacing x.xxx-x with the corresponding Webmin version.)

2) Once the file has been downloaded, enter this command:

rpm -U webmin-x.xxx-x.noarch.rpm

Give it a couple of minutes, a few messages will come up saying what version of Linux the server is running, then finally how to login to Webmin. If it doesn’t display the login details, they would normally be the following:

Address: http://:10000
Username: root username
Password: root password
