If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed and if you have

questions related to your ubuntu system post question to our forums. Thanks for

visiting!

We have already discussed how to install ubuntu 9.04 LAMP server .If you are a new user and

not familiar with command prompt you can install GUI for your ubuntu LAMP server using the

2 options

1) Install desktop Environment

2) Install Webmin

1) Install desktop Environment

First you nee to make sure you have enabled Universe and multiverse repositories in

/etc/apt/sources.list file once you have enable you need to use the following command

to install GUI

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

The above command will install GNOME desktop

If you wan to install a graphical desktop manager without some of the desktop addons

like Evolution and OpenOffice, but continue to use the server flavor kernel use the

following command

sudo aptitude install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop

If you want to install light weight desktop install xfce using the following command

sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

If you want to install KDE desktop use the following command

sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

2) Install Webmin in Ubuntu

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.Currently There is no

Webmin package in the Ubuntu repositories.This tutorial will explain how to Install

Webmin in Ubuntu Jaunty

You can install webmin for your server web interface to configure apache2,mysql,FTp

servers and many more.Now we will see how to install webmin in Ubuntu 9.04

Preparing your system

First you need to install the following packages

sudo aptitude install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime

libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl

Now download the latest webmin using the following command or from here

wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.470_all.deb

Now we have webmin_1.470_all.deb package install this package using the following

command

sudo dpkg -i webmin_1.470_all.deb

This will complete the installation.

Using the Webmin APT repository

If you like to install and update Webmin via APT, edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file on

your system

sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list

add the line

deb http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib

Save and exit the file

You should also fetch and install my GPG key with which the repository is signed, with

the commands : cd /root

wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc

sudo apt-key add jcameron-key.asc

You will now be able to install with the commands

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install webmin

All dependencies should be resolved automatically.



Ubuntu in par ti ular don¶t allow logins by t root user by default However, t e user

created at system installation time can use sudo to switch to root Webmin will allow

any user who has this sudo capability to login with full root pr ivileges.

Now you need to open your web browser and enter the following

htt ps://your-server-i p: /

Now you should see similar to the following Screen

Af ter login if you want to conf igure Apache,Mysql server you need to click on Servers

on your lef thand side you should many servers are ready to conf igure

This is very Easy to conf igure most of the servers and En joy your new Ubuntu Jaunty

LAM Server.
