Install webmin on ubuntu server
We have already installed ubuntu server, now we will install webmin for easy administartion.
Edit /etc/apt/sources.list file
sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
Add the following lines
deb http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib
deb http://webmin.mirror.somersettechsolutions.co.uk/repository sarge contrib
Save and exit the file
Now you need to import GPG key
wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
sudo apt-key add jcameron-key.asc
Update the source list
sudo apt-get update
