# Installing Webmin and Docker on Ubuntu This guide walks you through installing Webmin on Ubuntu and expanding logical volumes via Webmin’s interface. Additionally, it covers Docker installation on Ubuntu. --- ## Part 1: Installing Webmin on Ubuntu Webmin is a web-based interface for managing Unix-like systems, making tasks such as user management, server configuration, and software installation easier. ### Step 1: Update Your System Before installing Webmin, update your system to ensure all packages are up to date. ```bash sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y ``` ### Step 2: Add the Webmin Repository and Key To add the Webmin repository, download and run the setup script. ```bash curl -o setup-repos.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/webmin/webmin/master/setup-repos.sh sudo sh setup-repos.sh ``` ### Step 3: Install Webmin With the repository set up, install Webmin: ```bash sudo apt-get install webmin --install-recommends ``` ### Step 4: Access Webmin Once installed, Webmin runs on port 10000. You can access it by opening a browser and navigating to: ``` https://:10000 ``` If you are using a firewall, allow traffic on port 10000: ```bash sudo ufw allow 10000 ``` You can now log in to Webmin using your system's root credentials. --- ## Part 2: Expanding a Logical Volume Using Webmin Expanding a logical volume through Webmin’s Logical Volume Management (LVM) interface is a simple process. ### Step 1: Access Logical Volume Management Log in to Webmin and navigate to: **Hardware > Logical Volume Management** Here, you can manage physical volumes, volume groups, and logical volumes. ### Step 2: Add a New Physical Volume If you've added a new disk or partition to your system, you need to allocate it to a volume group before expanding the logical volume. To do this: 1. Locate your volume group in the Logical Volume Management module. 2. Click **Add Physical Volume**. 3. Select the new partition or RAID device and click **Add to volume group**. This action increases the available space in the group. ### Step 3: Resize the Logical Volume To extend a logical volume: 1. In the **Logical Volumes** section, locate the logical volume you wish to extend. 2. Select **Resize**. 3. Specify the additional space or use all available free space in the volume group. 4. Click **Apply** to resize the logical volume. ### Step 4: Resize the Filesystem After resizing the logical volume, expand the filesystem to match: 1. Click on the logical volume to view its details. 2. For supported filesystems like ext2, ext3, or ext4, click **Resize Filesystem**. The filesystem will automatically adjust to the new size of the logical volume. --- ## Part 3: Installing Docker on Ubuntu This section covers installing Docker on Ubuntu. ### Step 1: Remove Older Versions If you have previous versions of Docker installed, remove them: ```bash sudo apt remove docker docker-engine docker.io containerd runc ``` ### Step 2: Add Docker's Official GPG Key and Repository Add Docker’s GPG key and repository to your system’s Apt sources: ```bash sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl sudo install -m 0755 -d /etc/apt/keyrings sudo curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc echo \ "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \ $(. /etc/os-release && echo "$VERSION_CODENAME") stable" | \ sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null sudo apt-get update ``` ### Step 3: Install Docker Now, install Docker: ```bash sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin ``` ### Step 4: Post-Installation Steps To allow your user to run Docker commands without `sudo`, add your user to the Docker group: ```bash sudo usermod -aG docker $USER newgrp docker ``` Test your Docker installation by running the following command: ```bash docker run hello-world ``` For more information, visit the official [Docker installation page](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/).
