cpanel reset password emails

[SpiritAu]

Does anyone know why cPanel is sending links to local host, when "reset users passwords by email" is enabled?

e.g

NON-SSL:
http://localhost:2082/resetpass/?action=reset&pass=ujuzBs_lEM6X4zBd&user=qsource

SSL:
https://localhost:2083/resetpass/?action=reset&pass=ujuzBs_lEM6X4zBd&user=qsource

Sounds like cpanel thinks it's hostname is localhost. Obviously check the hostname, but I'd also go through the initial setup pages, there'll be something there.

actually that feature should be kinda disabled. as far as i know it has some security issues.
