How to forward port 2082 > 2083

[gayan]

Hello guys,

My first post here at cpanel, and this is cos i'm now a proud owner cpanel vps

Anyways, my question is how do i forward the unsecure 2082/2086 ports to the secure 2083/2087 ports.

I have already done the server tweaking so that /cpanel and /whm etc gets forwarded to the secure ports.

BTW i have noted that when i use http://domain.tld:2083 cpanel would automatically redirect to https, so just a port redirect/forward would be enough.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

If someone types :2082 directly, there is no setting to redirect them to :2083. You would need to configure your firewall to do this.

This can be done with the firewall but I don't suggest it. It's best to use the proper redirection setup in WHM Tweak Settings to avoid warnings when accessing it

I thought about that too, but the settings in Tweak Settings do not impact when a user types :2082 directly. They only affect when a user types example.com/cpanel etc.
