are running on Unix systems and the system (OS) very easily(eg: mysql, logs,
DHCP servers, apache server, setup user accounts, DNS, file sharing and many
more).

Webmin has been
installed and started successfully. Use your web
browser to go to
https://MEN-TM:10000/
and login with
the name and password you entered previously.
Because Webmin
uses SSL for encryption only, the certificate
it uses is not
signed by one of the recognized CAs such as
Verisign. When
you first connect to the Webmin server, your
browser will ask you
if you want to accept the certificate
presented, as it
does not recognize the CA. Say yes.S
