Webmin mobile theme
If you administer Linux servers, you might have heard of Webmin. If you haven’t, then you should take a look!
Well today, Jamie Cameron (Webmin developer) e-mailed me a sneak peek of the Webmin mobile device theme which will be released within the next week or so
The add-on is a theme that allows a mobile user to easily administer webmin from anywhere on a device such as an Apple iPhone and is available as an easy RPM update to your existing RPM installed webmin (tar.gz and deb installs also available).
While the interface works fairly well it’s still far from perfect with most of the module and configuration showing as regular full featured web pages and not “fancied up” by iUI (the framework that the rest of the menu system is based on). Jamie says that more work will be done in the future to further improve the UI. I have no doubt that further integration of iUI or even the webapp.net.free.fr framework will offer even faster and lighter access to your Webmin.
Here’s a gallery of screen shots:
