    I just installed webmin for ubuntu, went up to applications, places, system and webmin isn't in any of the menus so I was wondering how to I start it up and configure it? I read the faq (but there is nothing on how to initially start it that I can find) I tried /etc/webmin/start and it asks me for a job. =(

      To access webmin from your local computer open a web browser and type in "https://localhost:10000" port 10000 is the default port set by webmin, and can be changed in the configuration once you access it. Alternatively, from another computer in your network, enter in "https://[your.server's.IP.here e.g. 192.160.0.254]:10000". If you want to access it externally (ie from the internet) then you'll need to open port 10000 in whatever firewall you use.
