Webmin

I am a bit lazy sometimes and use Webmin to help setup certain services, e.g. Samba. Webmin is a web interfaced system administration system for Linux and has lots of plugins for various Linux apps/paxkages.

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, then restart webmin to take affect. sudo systemctl restart webmin
