Virtualmin and webmin

Along with virtualmin even webmin installs with virtualmin. Can I uninstall webmin ? Any tips to reduce memory usage (256 mb) ?

Howdy,

Virtualmin is a Webmin module… so you have to have Webmin to be able to use Virtualmin.

Yeah, 256MB of RAM is a bit low for running a web server with the full Virtualmin stack. With that little RAM, you’ll definitely be doing a lot of work to keep processes from consuming all of your available RAM.

However, this document here may help:

In the “Disable unnecessary services” section, you may want to add “Mailman” to that list. I’d recommend disabling it, along with any other unnecessary services.
