Install webmin on CentOS 7

Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Unix. Using any modern web browser, you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and much more. Webmin removes the need to manually edit Unix configuration files like /etc/passwd, and lets you manage a system from the console or remotely. See the standard modules page for a list of all the functions built into Webmin
INSTALLATION STEPS:-
Step-1: 
mkdir /download
cd /download
Step-2: Download the rpm file from webmin.com
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.791-1.src.rpm
Once you finish download make sure you have perl package installed, as webmin is a perl application it will check the package when initial installation process begin if it is there it will continue so let’s install perl packages first.

Copy and paste the below code into the file.
[Webmin]

mirrorlist=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum/mirrorlist
