Webmin introduction

Webmin is currently the most powerful Web-based Unix system management tool. The administrator accesses various management functions of Webmin through a browser and completes corresponding management actions. Currently, Webmin supports the vast majority of Unix systems. in addition to various versions of linux, these systems include AIX, HPUX, Solaris, Unixware, Irix, and FreeBSD.

Webmin allows you to remotely use a Web browser that supports HTTPS (HTTP over SSL) protocol to manage your host on the Web interface. This provides simple and in-depth remote management while ensuring security. This makes Webmin ideal for system administrators because all mainstream platforms have Web browsers that meet or even exceed the preceding requirements. Moreover, Webmin has its own "Web Server", so it does not need to run third-party software (such as Web servers ). Everything is ready. The Webmin modular architecture allows you to write your own configuration modules as needed.
