generic Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 the login to control panel link on the clients products/services page is not working properly on my server. its trying to log into web host manager using port :2086 in the link. Is there a way to adjust the url of this link, I checked my old system, lpanel, and they use a url consisting of the clients username and the root password for example: http://000.00.000.000:2083/login?user=username&pass=rootpassword and otherwise i believe cpanel is :2082 not :2086 right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS CEO Matt Posted December 30, 2006 WHMCS CEO Share Posted December 30, 2006 Why doesn't that link work for you? You should be logging into your WHM then you'll be forwarded to your clients cpanel account (logged in as root/reseller). Matt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adakist Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Let me explain the different ports cPanel uses to the thread opener, just in case he isn't clear. 2082: cPanel 2083: SSL cPanel 2086: WHM 2087: SSL WHM So WHM should be on 2086 -- when you try to go to your serversip:2086, does the server reject it? It may be a case of your server's firewall not setup properly to accept this port (which is required for WHM). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a case of your server's firewall not setup properly to accept this port (which is required for WHM). Or more its setup correctly to not use 2086 and 2082. You should always use SSL for cpanel and whm. All my servers are setup to only use 2087 and 2083. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adakist Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Yes that is true, but cPanel does support the non-SSL'd ports and nowhere in their documentation does it say that they are "improper" or "incorrect," but I do agree with you that using the SSL ports is always safer and should be used whenever possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generic Posted December 31, 2006 Author Share Posted December 31, 2006 after entering in my root user and password the first time, i am now able to login to all the accounts.

ROFL, no wonder they have been hacked so many times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
