    Found it.

    Installation for redhat-based systems

    Log on to a terminal session on your web server with a root account.

    1.
    yum install wget  (If not already installed, mine was.)

    2.
    wget http://www.schoolitexpert.com/data/software/web/webmin/webmin-1.500-1.noarch.rpm

    3.
    rpm --import www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc

    4.
    yum install webmin-1.500-1.noarch.rpm



    Then on your workstation browse to
    https://Your-clearosserver-Name-or-IP:10000


    upgrade webmin, install update packages, done :)

    If you get an error importing the key "error: http ://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc: import read failed(0)."

    Do this.....

    [root@f tp ~]# rpm --import www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
    error: http ://www.webmin.com/jcameron-k ey.asc: import read failed(0).


    I have to admit not having seen this before but did find a work a round I thought I would share.
    1.Open up www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc" target="_blank">www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc in your browser an d copy and paste the output
    2.Login to your serv er and go to a temp location for me it was /tmp
    3.Create a new file
    nano public.gpg.key
    and then paste in the key you copied form the browser. Save the file and exit.
    4.From the CLI then enter
    rmp --import public.gpg.key

    5.Voila GPG key installed and you can now use yum to install webmin !

    I'd suggest anyone installing Webmin would be best advised to obtain the installer/package directly from the source:

    Here

    and not a 3rd party site.

    If you do decide to use a 3rd party site, you would be wise to do a md5sum verification before installing it onto your system.

    Failure to do this opens you up to the potential for trojaned installers/packages.

    I went to this page http://webmin.com/download.html

    and got the download link....

    then

    rpm -U webmin-1.550-1.noarch.rpm

    It took 2 minutes to get it installed.

    None of this is working for me.
    This used to be a simple 3 minute task getting this installed.
    It wont let me install it or the key.

    On another note I got 3 updates 2 days ago and whatever was in that crap completely hosed my machine.... so bad I could look at anything to determine where the problem was. I had to wipe the whole machine.
    Not a big deal as I had to swap out the machine and drives anyhow for the bigger, better and faster.

    Ive been with CC since the beginning without a hint of a problem. Ever since it went COS Ive had nothing BUT problems

    I finally got it

    Copy the link location from the webmin site for the centos rpm add wget to the front of the download and then install

    rpm -U webmin-1.550-1.noarch.rpm

    Looks like they moved the file location at sourceforge and it looks for it and brings it in with no key

    Buenas,
    aqui desde colombia intente instalarlo tal como lo indicaba el post pero no me funciono,
    error: http://xxxxxxxx

    encontré la solución aquí: http://www.webmin.com/rpm.html
    esta es otra manera a la que anteriormente nos explicaba James Raaymakers

    If you are using the RPM version of Webmin, first download the file from the downloads page , or run the command :
    wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.570-1.noarch.rpm


    and then run the command :

    rpm -U webmin-1.570-1.noarch.rpm


    luego abri el puerto 10000 del webmin.

    Espero que sea de ayuda a alguien que éste como yo deseoso de aprender.

    login in as [root]#

    mkdir /tmp/webmin
    cd /tmp/webmin
    wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
    rpm --import jcameron-key.asc
    wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.570-1.noarch.rpm
    rpm -U webmin-1.570-1.noarch.rpm

    exit

    You can reach your Server at port 10000

    https://localhost:10000/

    I think, that with this link we can close the discussion here: http://www.webmin.com/rpm.html
