Forwarded for the list.
Yes it is possible to use webmin from the outside by using a combination
of no-ip and ssl certificates (https) for your webmin installation.
There's a fantastic document on no-ip by Dan (i think) in the group
yahoo web page. Use google on reading up on webmin configuration file to
make sure that u're using https instead of http.
>From a security point of view, considering that it's over https, others
might find it to be ok. Personally, I prefer to keep a minimum of open
ports facing the internet and hence prefer running webmin only on the
internal interface and using VPN to get to it.

PS: My apologies to the list for top posting, however, like i've pointed
out before, my thunderbird refuses to cooperate with me with all the
damn yahoo adds.
