How to install Webmin 2.0
You won’t find Webmin 2.0 in your default repositories. Instead, you’ll need to download the installer file and run it manually. First, log in to your Ubuntu server instance and, using wget, download the file with the command:
wget https://github.com/webmin/webmin/releases/download/2.000/webmin_2.000_all.deb
Once the file download completes, run the first install command with:
sudo dpkg -i webmin_2.000_all.deb
This install will error out. That’s okay because the apt-get package manager is outstanding at fixing such problems. To resolve the issues, issue the command:
sudo apt-get install -f
The above command will download and install the unmet dependencies the dpkg command couldn’t handle.
How to access Webmin
After apt-get fixes the installation, open a web browser and point it to https://SERVER:10000, where SERVER is the IP address of the hosting machine. You’ll be greeted by the Webmin login window (Figure A).

Log in with a user who has sudo privileges and you’ll find yourself on the Webmin 2.0 dashboard (Figure B).

And that’s all there is to install Webmin 2.0 on Ubuntu Server 22.04. If you’ve never experienced Webmin before, you’re in for a treat, as this web-based admin console can help make your Linux administration tasks simpler and more efficient.
