Applications :: Cannot Install Webmin On Dummy Server Setup
Feb 7, 2011
I have a dummy server set up in which I am trying to install webmin (which I have done several times in the past and remb it being straightforward and pretty simple!) however when trying to install I keep getting errors.
I install all the perl packages as required :-
sudo apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl
After downloading webmin I try and install it:-
sudo dpkg -i webmin_ 1.530 _all.deb
This is where I encounter errors regarding apt-show-versions saying that it is not installed.I try and install it but an error appears stating that apt-show-versions is not installed. So I try and install apt-show-versions and that fails as it states that there is libapt package missing too. When I try to force install both - unable to fetch some archives but maybe run apt-get update or fix missing....It just seems like I am going around in circles (as I have run apt-get update and have run the commands as root...)

I have had webmin running previously but i just recently installed Unbuntu server and i am now trying to install webmin. after typing this to install webmin sudo apt-get install webmin it started doing its thing and then it halts.
Giving me the following message: "Package webmin is not available, but is referred to by another package. this may mean that the package is missing, had been obsoleted , or is only available from another source."
The first thing i did after installing webmin was edit the sources.list
Then i tpyed sudo nano sources.list I uncommented everything with "deb" in front of it
I also uncommented
deb cdrom:
I then typed this sudo wget [url]
After getting that i typed this apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl
Then i tryed to install it and got that error.
I also tryed install it using this tutorial [url]
When i got to the part when i need to type
sudo apt-get install update this is what happened

I encountered a a dependency issue when trying to install Webmin on Ubuntu Server Edition 10.04 Beta1.
When you try to install webmin, libmd5-perl is not available in any of the lucid repositories:
I resolved the dependency prob by adding the following repository to my /etc/apt/sources.list: deb [url]
Then I did a sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install and libmd5-perl installed fine along with webadmin. BTW. I got a GPG error when doing a apt=get update because I did not import the public key for the debian repos I used to get libdm5-perl, which doesn't matter to me as I commented out the repos once I got libmd5-perl installed.

I got Shorewall firewall all Set-up perfect but I'm stuck at 1 last bit. The aim is to let on 2 clients max onto my server. I have the policy setup in webmin as.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
More than 2 clients can get onto the server. The aim is to have it as a ddos protection allowing 100 clients on and a max burst of 10 clients at a time.

I installed OpenSSH via tasksel and am using Webmin for administration. I'd like to be able to SSH externally and want to setup the necessary public/private keys to use in FileZilla.
In Webmin, under Servers > SSH Server I can click 'Host Keys' and see an RSA key. Is this the public or private key for my server? Do I need to copy this into a text file to import it into FileZilla on my remote PC (that I want to connect from)? Is that all that needs to be done (aside from opening the port on my router/firewall)?
Is there an automated way to set this up via Webmin?

I recently installed Ubuntu server 9.04. It appears to be functioning correctly in that I can acces it from other Windows machines ony my network. I installed Webmin to remotely administer this server, however I cannot connect using Webmin from my other machines. I am only running Samba on this server at the present time.
I attempted to access the webmin conf file at /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf but permission wasa denied, evenas root.

To make my problem simple to understand I've attached a picture. Basically, in the Webmin>Apache configuration page, where I used to also enable/disable the modules Apache was using (on Ubuntu 8.04) I've noticed now that the option to configure the modules is no more (on Centos 5). So, I'd like to disable and enable some modules but can't, like the mod_python for example which gives me hundreds of errors in the Apache's logs, but cannot.
how to view the Apache modules again in Webmin?
just noticed can't attach images... here's the link to the picture: [URL]

I have a computer running Ubuntu 10.04. I have installed Webmin on it and everything is working fine except for the GRUB module. I wish to know if there is a new GRUB module that supports GRUB 2? It may be beta or an unofficial one.

I'm a newbie here but I have a question on how to make the connection between webmin and thunderbird via POP3. I have webmin set up and it is able to send and receive mail via webmin but when I enter the account details in thunderbird it cant find the settings for my mail account. I'm not exactly sure where I need to go in webmin to set it up to allow a connection from a client to allow the downloading of mail to the client. Would simply prefer to go to thunderbird to send and receive mail as opposed to logging into webmin then going to my mail.

I have webmin on my linux server, I've made a cron job which requires a password to be entered after the command has been run.. all good. I noticed the cron job has the option "Input to command", where after many hours googling a can assume this is where you type input after the cron job has run (for example, a password?). I have tired putting the password needed for the job (the cron job is an ssh root@address) into this field however the output when running the cronjob is saying "permision denied" still.
Is there some sort of character I have to enter in this field, like
-p mypassword:
or
*mypassword?
or
"mypassword"

I feel shy asking this question but, 90% of the applications I install in Ubuntu (last release), do not show up later on in the applications menu, so I cant run them. I know it seems silly, but I can't find the way to handle this inconvenience. Is there a place (like Start> All programs in Windows), were I could find and run all the programs I install?

I want to install Webmin on a dedicated remote server. I keep reading different blogs/tutorials etc about installing webmin on Ubunto server 10.10 but it seems too easy to be true. There is never any mention of requirements etc. I did read that even perl isn't needed pre install now and will install with webmin.But do i need to install lamp etc first or does it pull these in when Webmin its installed?

I installed webmin on Debian apt-get install webmin. After installation following message came.
Code:
Setting up webmin (1.510-2) ...
Webmin install complete. You can now login to https://IP:10000/
as root with your root password, or as any user who can use sudo to run commands as root. So I infer that the installation was successful.
But when I do
Code:
http://IP:10000
I get following error
Code:
Error 111 (net::ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED): Unknown error.

I've changed the login configuration of Webmin in a way that it will block hosts for 1200 seconds after 8 failed login attempts and since then I can't login to Webmin anymore. I've tried stopping and starting Webmin via SSH, waiting a few hours before trying again, flushing the iptables configuration but all with no luck.
