    Default Accessing Cpanel through a firewall

    Folks,

    I am trying to access Cpanel through a firewall using Firefox as follows:

    http://www.domain.com/Cpanel/

    Unfortunately it takes me to an error page. Does anyone know what settings I can change on the browser in order to get past the firewall?

    Thanks,
    Nu1

    If the firewall is actually the problem then it's the firewall needs to be modified, not the browser.

    Hi,
    Have you try installing cPanel Proxy to your server?
    http://cpanelproxy.net/

    This is great if you are behind the firewall ....

    As 'nyjimbo' stated, you need to modify the firewall installed on your machine in order to allow ports 2082 and 2083. It is nothing to do with the browser settings.
