How to install webmin to manage a linux centos server

Login as root

cd /root
mkdir webmin
cd webmin
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.580-1.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh webmin*

WebMin runs its own web server on port 10000.

To start WebMin, issue this command: /etc/webmin/start.

You access it with a web browser pointed to the IP address of your Asterisk box at that port address, e.g. http://192.168.0.108:10000

You can also manually download the package to your local pc from the links at http://www.webmin.com/

Then using an ssh ftp client, ftp to the centos server and upload the package.
