Try:
rpm -Uvh webmin-1.160-1.noarch.rpm
If it doesn't work, you may have been bitten by the RPM lock file bug
that plagued RH9 (yes, it is Redhat 9, not 9.0).
I can't remember off-hand how to fix it, it was something like kill all
RPM instances, remove some files that ended in 'db' and do a rebuild on
the RPM database.
A google search may bring up the steps required as this was very prevalent.
