Begin installation of Virtualmin GPL

From the Virtualmin download page download the install script to.

cd /usr/local/src

wget http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/scripts/install.sh

chmod +x install.sh


Before running the script I’ll ran a snapshot on the virtual server I’m working on so can I restore if something goes wrong. (If you haven’t tried VMware ESXi free version you definitely are missing out!)

./install.sh

 

esxi_snapshot

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Message comes up asking if you are using the supported OS which we are. Click yes.

The install process does take time be patient…….

 

install_process

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you're worried the spinner is just stuck not doing anything open another terminal and ssh into the box then run the top command. You'll see some activity related to the install process. Just wait until you get the message Succeeded.

 

top

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No errors at this point we'll proceed with installation.

netstat -vat -c -n

Webmin should be listening on its default port 10000 (Should be change to something else after logging in webmin to increase security including restricting which IPs to allow connections to Webmin following this how-to.)
