HowTo: Adding Webmin to APT repository

If you like to install and update Webmin via APT, you will need edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file on your system with the command, as root:

vi /etc/apt/sources.list

and add the following lines to the end of the file:

## Webmin Repository.
deb http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib

You should also fetch and install the GPG key with which the repository is signed, to validate the files, with the commands:

cd /root
wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
apt-key add jcameron-key.asc

You will now be able to install with the following commands:

apt-get update
apt-get install webmin

All dependencies should be resolved automatically and installed as required.  You can then access Webmin via your browser and the following similar URL:

https://[yourserver]:10000
