I have a CentOS 6.5 with webmin installed. I need to change the default port (10000) to something else (1020) for example.

Here is what I've tried so far:

From web interface I changed the port and when it redirect to the address with the new port all I get is "This webpage is not available".
From command line I've changed the file miniserv.conf and added the port I want, I add the new rule to the iptables and after I restart webmin and iptable all I get is "This webpage is not available".

PS: In another server running CentOS 5.8 it works from interface and command line.

It's working for me on CentOS 6.5 with Webmin 1.700 – Céline Aussourd Sep 29 '14 at 11:15

Is it configured to run over https? – Céline Aussourd Sep 29 '14 at 11:15
@CélineAussourd yes mine is configured to redirect to HTTPS and webmin only runs over HTTPS. For the short term, I limited connections only from my IP because I couldn't get the port changed. – degenerate Sep 30 '14 at 13:20

Silly question but, Did you check all your firewalls? – Oxymoron Oct 01 '14 at 03:14
Also, In the future, please user SuperUser for these types of questions. – Oxymoron Oct 01 '14 at 03:14
After you make the change, does `netstat -plnt` show webmin using the port you specified? – miken32 Oct 01 '14 at 22:52
This question should be on Superuser and not Stackoverflow. Here it is off-topic – Devian Oct 03 '14 at 00:37
do you run webmin via xinetd. in this case you have to change /etc/xinetd.conf – user1403360 Dec 12 '14 at 11:04
Did you check your firewall configuration? Maybe the new port is blocked. – user1403360 Dec 12 '14 at 11:05
