1. Relationship to the Webmin project
webmin.app is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or operated by the Webmin project, its authors, Virtualmin or any related company, and it is not affiliated with any other third-party platform mentioned on the Site. The Site is an informational resource written to help administrators install, configure and secure Webmin. For authoritative information, release notes and security advisories, always refer to the official Webmin website and the webmin/webmin repository on GitHub.
2. Downloads
The Site does not host Webmin installation files. The download button links to the ZIP archive of the master branch of the official GitHub repository, and installation instructions reference the official package repository. The master branch contains the project's current development code, which may include changes that have not yet appeared in a numbered release. For production systems, the packaged releases recommended by the Webmin project are generally the better choice. You are responsible for verifying any file you download and for deciding whether it is suitable for your systems.
3. Accuracy of information
We aim to keep every guide correct and current. Webmin, Linux distributions, firewalls and cloud platforms change over time, however, and menu names, file paths, default values and commands can differ between versions. Version numbers mentioned on the Site, such as the latest stable release at the time of writing, are provided for context and may be out of date when you read them. Information is provided without any guarantee of completeness, accuracy or fitness for a particular purpose.
4. Server administration risk
Webmin runs with administrative privileges and can change users, disks, network settings, firewall rules and services. A mistaken change can make a server unreachable, expose it to attack or cause data loss. Following any instruction on the Site is done at your own risk. Always keep backups, keep an alternative access method such as SSH or a provider console, test changes in a lab first and follow your organisation's policies. Nothing on the Site constitutes professional security, legal or compliance advice for your specific environment.
5. Security information
Hardening advice on the Site reflects generally accepted good practice, such as restricting access by IP address, enabling two-factor authentication, using trusted certificates and applying updates promptly. Following it reduces risk but cannot eliminate it. Monitor official security announcements and apply patches as soon as they are released.
6. External links
The Site contains links to third-party websites for your convenience. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, availability or practices, and a link does not imply endorsement of everything on the linked site.
7. Trademarks
Webmin, Usermin, Virtualmin, Ubuntu, Debian, Red Hat, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, Docker, Windows and all other product names are the property of their respective owners. They are used on the Site only to identify the products being discussed.
8. Comparisons
Comparisons with other tools, such as Cockpit or cPanel, summarise publicly available characteristics at the time of writing to help readers choose. Product features, licensing and pricing change, so check each vendor's own information before making a decision.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operators of the Site accept no liability for any loss or damage, direct or indirect, arising from the use of, or reliance on, information on the Site. See the Terms of Use for full details.
