Uninstall / Remove Webmin Software

To uninstall or remove Webmin software from a Linux or Unix system, you can follow these steps:

  1. Stop the Webmin service:
refe‮t r‬o:lautturi.com
systemctl stop webmin
  1. Remove the Webmin package:
yum remove webmin

If you installed Webmin using a different package manager, such as apt or dpkg, you will need to use the appropriate command to remove the Webmin package. For example, to remove Webmin using apt, you can use the following command:

apt remove webmin
  1. Delete the Webmin configuration files and directories:
rm -rf /etc/webmin
rm -rf /var/webmin

This will delete the Webmin configuration files and directories, including the Webmin configuration file /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf, the Webmin logs in /var/webmin/miniserv.log, and any other Webmin-related files and directories.

  1. Remove the Webmin user:
userdel webmin

This will delete the Webmin user from the system.

  1. Remove the Webmin startup script:
rm -f /etc/init.d/webmin

This will delete the Webmin startup script, which is used to start the Webmin service when the system boots.

After completing these steps, Webmin should be completely uninstalled from your system. Keep in mind that uninstalling Webmin will also remove any configurations or settings that you have made using the Webmin interface. If you want to keep a copy of your Webmin configurations, you should make a backup before uninstalling Webmin.

If you encounter any issues while uninstalling Webmin, you can consult the Webmin documentation or seek assistance from a qualified Linux or Unix administrator.
