let me guess... you're getting a perl module error, or the SSL error 
when you attempt to install webmin, yes? I got the same thing on my FC3 
web/mail server. As I recall, since I have two seperate installations of 
PERL on this machine, threaded which installs as default, (/usr/bin), 
and a non-threaded install (/usr/local) because Interchange uses 
non-threaded PERL, I had to make sure that Webmin looks at the 
non-threaded perl on the system. That in itself can be a real trick to 
pull off.

At any rate, make sure that Net::SSLeay is installed in your PERL 
installation, otherwise Webmin will not install unless you force it, and 
even then its not likely to work correctly if at all without the 
dependent PERL module(s).
