I would agree about webmin

Caldera funded development - they have always included it. I don't know
that any other distro included it.

To install SSLeay on webmin - download the tarball, untar it. cd into
Net_SSLeay.pm-1.05 and ./Makefile.PL (don't run test - it's broken now)
- supply "/usr" when it can't find where the basic perl binary is
located, then make & make install.

The Net_SSLeay is old and development on it has long since ceased.
