Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Hosting Software and Control Panels : Hosting Software and Control Panels Tutorials : Accessing Plesk behind strict firewall

[Dragon-Knight]

Hi all,

Control panel uses different ports so that people behind strict firewall cannot access to that panels easily...

cPanel has cPanel proxy script. But what about Plesk? How can we do for it?

Plesk for Windows?

You can edit the psa/httpd.conf file to put plesk on any port you like - obviously it cannot conflict with existing port usage, so you'll probably have to run it on a dedicated IP (ie, you cannot run it on port 443 if you expect to server https web pages).

Edit the Listen directive in there.

I think the best thing you can do is contact your LAN admin and open up teh port 4483

[n3tpreneur]

yes 8443 port

Uhmmm ... there is a way actually.

I use this method when surfing in my university computer lab.

I use Real VNC to connect to my computer at home. Then from there, I just remotely control my home computer to enter plesk control panel.

Even though the firewall is strict, but it still have some ports open.

oh if the RDP port (VNC using it) is opend then its not a strict firewall.
