 A key difficulty I have had recently is that most the modern web browsers no longer seem to allow self signed SSL certificate exceptions. Fortunately as I only wish to run Webmin locally (LAN), not facing the public internet (WAN), I can still access locally without SSL setup (http not https). To do this from the CLI as follows:  ''sudo vim /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf'', change ''SSL=1'' to ''SSL=0'', save and exit, then restart webmin to take affect, ''sudo systemctl restart webmin'' A key difficulty I have had recently is that most the modern web browsers no longer seem to allow self signed SSL certificate exceptions.

 +I can now relatively easily assign local web pages a local signed certificate via Traefik and my local DNS, however as I do not use Webmin there is not much point even trying at this time.
