    I was just wondering does webmin have any internet application that I can access from a port like 192.168.1.90:67 and it would open a search engine that i can use the internet from.

    What you want is called a web proxy. Webmin has a module for managing Squid, which is a very popular web caching proxy server.

    You can find documentation and such for Squid here:

    http://www.squid-cache.org/

    And, the documentation for Webmin's Squid module here:

    http://doxfer.webmin.com/Webmin/Squid_Proxy_Server

    All of the popular Linux distributions, as well as the BSDs, have an easy to install package of Squid in their software repository.

    Thats not what I meant. I mean accessing a browser like chrome inside another browser so I open chrome on my computer and goto 192.168.1.92:55 and it loads up chrome within the browser. I want to use this so i can port forward and bypass search restrictions at my work place.

      That's called a VPN.

    Webmin has a core module for IPsec and a third party module for OpenVPN, if you want to use it to manage your installation of one of those methods to setup a VPN.
