Webmin Introduction

Webmin is currently the most powerful Web-based UNIX system Management tool. The administrator accesses Webmin's various management functions through the browser and completes the corresponding management actions. Currently, Webmin supports the vast majority of Unix systems, including AIX, HPUX, Solaris, UnixWare, IRIX, and FreeBSD, in addition to various versions of Linux.

Webmin allows you to manage your hosts remotely using a Web interface that supports HTTPS (HTTP on SSL) protocols. This provides a simple, in-depth remote management with the assurance of security. This makes Webmin ideal for system administrators, because all major platforms have Web browsers that meet or exceed the above requirements. Furthermore, Webmin has its own "Web server", so it does not need to run third-party software (such as a Web server). Everything has. Webmin's modular architecture allows you to write your own configuration modules when you need them.
