    I'm following This Tutorial and I got to the early step of installing webadmin. The version is newer than the one in the tutorial and it tells me that it will not install because it does not have the dependencies.

    I have tried the following commands with some success
    Finally I got as far as this step. But here is where I am stuck. Can anyone help me download/locate/install these dependencies?

    please use the command:

    apt-get install libnet-ssleay-perl libauthen-pam-perl libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl

    then run:

    dpkg -i webmin_1.330_all.deb

    It should work then.

    But it recommended to install the webmin from the source tarball, because the deb configure differently.

    Thanks for the response. I tried the code and wound up with this.

    It seems that we've found the problem. Does anyone know how to install libauthen-pam-perl seperately - not directly from the server?? Thanks

    Yes, please make sure that the universe repository is enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list.

    I'm pretty sure this is it. I just looked at the file in the directory you mentioned and it states.

    How do I enable the Universe repository?

    Please uncomment these two lines:
    Code:
    # deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy universe
    # deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy universe
    so that they read
    Code:
    deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy universe
    deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy universe
    Run
    Code:
    apt-get update
    afterwards.
