Some of my clients are not able to go logon to domain.tld/cpanel when they are behind their company's firewall. Do you guys have same experience ? Is there any explanation on this?

thanks :)

It redirects to port 2086 or 2087 depending on if you are using ssl or no ssl.

Okay, it redirects to those ports ... so what does that mean? and no ssl. :) thanks.

He means it's possible that those ports have been blocked by their company's firewall...

2086 is the non-ssl port, so tell them they may need to get that port opened by their sysadmin :)

Or, you can install this on the customers account: http://cpanelproxy.net

I have used the autoinstaller on that page for one client and it works like a charm. Just put in the customers ftp user and pass and their domain name and click go.

Another vote for cpanelproxy. It's always nice to have installed before you need it because once you need it it's usually to late.
