Install Webmin on Ubuntu 24.04 (Latest: ~2.620 as of Jan 2026)

Run these commands first (as root or with sudo): 
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install -y curl gnupg software-properties-common apt-transport-https ca-certificates lsb-release

Use the official setup script (recommended method): 
curl -o setup-repos.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/webmin/webmin/master/webmin-setup-repo.sh
chmod +x setup-repos.sh
sudo ./setup-repos.sh

This adds the signed repo and GPG key automatically.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install webmin -y

Installation usually takes 1–2 minutes.
