In Ubuntu you can check your hostname with the command
hostname -f
And for the purpose of installing webmin, you would need a hostname that is searchable and resolve to your IP address. Therefore you can set it by editing
sudo pico /etc/hostname
sudo pico /etc/host
and replacing the OLDNAME with the NEWNAME in these files. This will take effect after a reboot. However to set it immediately, you can simply type
sudo hostname NEWNAME
this should fix your hostname, and it will be much easier to install Virtualmin
