Right, you don't need apache. But one of the post-install scripts references
apache, and you see the innocuous permission denied error on systems where
httpd is missing.
> nostart="yes"
This line ensures that the startup sequence below it is never run during
setup. You must start webmin via the rc.d script after enabling webmin in
/etc/rc.conf. From pkg-install:
Since 1.150_2, to run webmin from
startup, add webmin_enable="YES"
in your /etc/rc.conf.
