According to the author of webmin, you can safely ignore the permission 
denied error.  But out of curiosity, do you have apache installed?  The 
post-install script calls a series of other Perl scripts, one of which is 
apache-lib.pl.  If httpd cannot be found, there is a permission denied error; 
if httpd *does* exist, the error does not appear.
                         
Did you webmin_enable="YES" in your /etc/rc.conf and run the rc.d script to 
start it?  The install script does not automatically start webmin because 
nostart="yes" in setup.sh.
