General
Webmin is a server management tool.
We use very few of its real features
- We setup nfs exports for our local file server
- We manage cron jobs
SSL
Webmin normally runs in non secure mode.
This means that Chrome will complain every time you access it.
This page explains a bit about how to set it up. Not sure how much of that is needed.
BUT if you already have any SSL cert on your computer/server from an existing vhost that will work.
See example below from the msgcnx server

If you break something(maybe I did and maybe I didn't)
You can reset the root user password on webmin by:
sudo /usr/share/webmin/changepass.pl /etc/webmin root newpassword
