Webmin is a web-based tool that lets you manage a server remotely, it works through the apache server and can be accessed from any computer. It is ideal to quickly perform an action on a PC that is not in the same category site, it is recommended to run a secure http (https).
Webmin can be downloaded at http://webmin.com in the form of a .tar.gz.
The reason why we install webmin is not only because this tool is easy to use, but also to show how a .tar.gz file should be unpacked and be installed.
We go to the website and download webmin with the command wget, wget is a program that ophaald content from web servers and downloading support via http, https ftp.
We move first to the / opt we then subsequently
wget http://perform prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.670.tar.gz, webmin will be downloaded.
The / opt is reserved to store all the software packages that do not form part of the standard Debian installation on. Webmin is not part of the Debian packages and then installed in the / opt.
If we dive in our directory will be here webmin-1.670.tar.gz file, This we try to unpack it with the command:
In terminal run: gunzip webmin-1.670.tar.gz and will look like after: webmin-1.670.tar

With the next entry we will webmin-1.670.tar decompress with tar xf where x represents extracts and f for all the ge extract had to override.

In terminal run: tar xf webmin-1.670.tar and expires after this looks like: webmin-1.670 then we go into the directory with cd webmin-1670. Once in this directory we can install webmin with the command ./setup.sh, there are some details will be given as:
