    we have csf on our server, however cPanel put it's own rules. After Everytime we remove cPanel rules they re-apeare.
    How do we stop cPanel rules from emerging?

    Thanks.

    I think you are mistaken, AFAIK cPanel does not install and/or maintain any kind of firewall.

    There's a firewall chain called acctboth that is on all of our cpanel servers. When ever we remove it, it emerges aagain.
    I'm pretty sure it's cpanel doing.

    Could be, but we also have CSF in all our servers and never had problems with rules.

    EDIT:

    I don't think it's harmless, it blocks ftp passive mode at list.

    Is there any way to disable it?

    Could you open a support ticket using the link in my signature so we can reproduce this issue? You can post the ticket number here so we can update this thread with the outcome.

    Thank you.

    I now think this was a misunderstanding of one of our tech. We still investigating and will let you know if needed.

    Thanks.
