See /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf
The "allow=127.0.0.1" line limits access to localhost. Comment out the
line to allow access from anywhere, or change it to e.g.
"allow=127.0.0.1 1.2.3.0/255.255.255.0" to allow access from localhost
and the 1.2.3.0/24 net. Note that you have to use a netmask, not a
prefix length.
You should probably set /etc/hosts.allow back the way it was.
