Webmin – web console for Unix system administration

Yesterday, I tried to find some tool to simplify my home Ubuntu server management. After small research I chooses Webmin – free, simple and powerful tool that fit my needs. Using any modern web browser, you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and much more. Webmin removes the need to manually edit Unix configuration files like /etc/passwd, and lets you manage a system from the console or remotely.

It works under many popular platform – Red Hat, Debian/Ubuntu, Free BSD and even Solaris. Also, it has a lot of third-party modules and themes, so it can be easy customizable and expandable.

Installation for Ubuntu as simple as is: 

sudo apt-get install webmin
