Sorry, I don't know.  I have three Linux installations at this point,
only one of which has Webmin installed.  It also happens to have Apache
installed and enabled, and webmin works.  Sometime when I get a chance
I'll install webmin on one of the boxes without Apache enabled and see
whether it works.  (On that box I did a "which webmin" and it wasn't
found, but I thought I had installed webmin on that box.)

The s means it is some sort of secure variation of the http protocol
(maybe with something called "ssl", which IIUC, is not the same as
"ssh").

Do I need some sort of GUI installed? 

Maybe -- I tried "lynx https://localhost:10000"; on the box where webmin
workd in konqueror and I got a 401 error which I think is "Start file
could not be found or is not text/html or text/plain."  I did this while
webmin was "running" (displayed) in a konqueror window.
