Recently installed a WHM/cPanel on a home server installation WHM and cPanel are all behaving as expected but the cPanel sites won't resolve.

https://hefin.co.uk/ -> resolves to https://hefin.co.uk/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi
http://wpfreelancer.co.uk -> resolves to https://wpfreelancer.co.uk/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi

The WHM/cPanel server is behind my PFsense box, I've opened the web ports and ports required by

I ran cat /var/cpanel/cpnat

[[email protected] ~]# cat /var/cpanel/cpnat
192.168.1.251 80.229.15.223

The IP address internal is correct 192.168.1.251
The web-facing IP address is correct 80.229.15.223

Any ideas what the issue could be. Thanks
