Webmin is a web-based interface for the system administration of Unix-like servers.

This {% term integration %} provides sensors for monitoring the CPU and memory usage of your server.

Prerequisites

For best security, create a specific Webmin user for Home Assistant with a strong password and only "Can accept RPC calls" permission (under "Permissions for all modules") and remove the "Can accept RPC calls" permission for all other users.

{% note %} Be aware that the Webmin API ignores any 2FA set up via the frontend, e.g. it is even with enabled 2FA possible to use the API with only username and password. {% endnote %}
