cPanel last access...

[rafaelgp]

hi,

always when i access cpanel's accounts on my server it shows the same "last access": 127.0.0.1

how can i correct it and make it show the real last access? currently it just shows '127.0.0.1' for all users. when working, it is useful.



thank you.

If you are accessing your clients cpanel via whm, or the drop down list in your main account (ie not actually logging in with their username/password), it will show the last login as 127.0.0.1

Well, I desactivated this login by root (xfer..something)... It is happenning on normal logins...

I was told that https (encrypted http) couldn't allocate it, so 127.0.0.1 (localhost) was used therefor...

Right it will not be that then.

Yep your right there, something to do with stunnel if my memory serves me right.

 

[rafaelgp]

But why? I didn't understand very well.

How can I fix it?

 

[Gareth]

Basically you can not fix it.

When your clients go to : https://www.domain.com:2083 it is routed though software called stunnel. This means that the server can not identify the IP address and so replaces it with localhost 127.0.0.0

Ah, ok... Now I got it...

I've never used cPanel without SSL yet, hehe.

Ah, which version of OpenSSL does Stunnel should use? The last one, no?

BTW, in the latest CURRENT/EDGE builds cPanel have changed all this and access to both cPanel and WHM is no longer through stunnel - they've coded their own SSL routines. So, one you're using those builds the IP will show up correctly whether using SSL or non-SSL access.

 

[rafaelgp]

Hmm, ok.

I'll update cpanel/whm.
Thank you.

Hi - I'm using 10.8.2-CURRENT-467 and still see last login as coming from 127.0.0.1

do I need to change a setting somehwere to use cpanel SSL routines instead of stunnel?

 

[jamesbond]

I tried:

tweak settings -> Use native SSL support if possible, negating need for Stunnel

but that didn't seem to help any.

I'm running C472

This will work if cpsrvd is using native SSL. Check it out once again after updating to the next build published yesterday for Current and Edge.

Does anyone know when this will be released to "RELEASE"?
