Webmin uses a custom protocol that is geared towards perl, with
function calls and responses being made over HTTP requests. Unlike
alternatives like XML-RPC, it is stateful .. once an RPC client establishes
a session, a process is kept alive on the remote server that handles
all requests from that client until it dies.
