What kind of public/private keys? ssh? GPG?

If you mean an ssh keypair to access the server,
https://archive.virtualmin.com/node/16978 suggests webmin has some kind of
optional method to automatically create keypairs for users, but if that
isn't set up on yours, I think you would have to create the keypair using
ssh-keygen at the terminal and upload the public key to webmin. (Or just
use a pair you already have).
