    Hi,

    I'm unable to access ISPConfig on my host. Normal http traffic to port 80 works OK. "netstat -tap" gives this:

    Code:
    # netstat -tap | grep :81
    tcp        0      0 *:81                    *:*                     LISTEN     20122/ispconfig_htt
    There should be no firewall or such things preventing the access. What could be wrong?

    I have the same problem...mine has been workng fine for about 3 weeks. Sunday I had to clone the main harddrive. Upon booting with the new drive, everything works perfectly except I cannot access port 81, either with https:// or http://. Does anyone have any ideas?

    OK, so it seems to be working somehow: I can access locally from my Linux box by going to "localhost:81" with lynx. But still no access from the outside world.

    well I got mine's working

    Hi guys. I was having a very similar issue . . . localhost:81 worked. I went into the management ->server->services and started the firewall. I waited like 5 minutes, went back and stopped it and now it's all available from the web . . . go figure . . .

    I hope it works for you too!!!

    localhost:81

    The settings are in the ISPconfig GUI. I got in thru https://localhost:81 using firefox redirected to me.
    I went to Management > Server > Services and on the bottom window you see
    all your current services and their state. I clicked on the pulldown menu for Firewall, and picked RESTART. Waited 5 minutes then picked OFF and all was fine . . . UNTIL I REBOOTED . . .

    Firewall broken somehow?

    I just turned the friewall ON, waited like 5 minutes, then OFF again, and it looks like I'm available to the web again.

    It almost looks like the firewall is getting turned back on again , , , It's weird . . .

    Oh, okay. Well unfortunately I don' have the possibility to use Firefox, since I only have shell access to the box :)

    Hi,

    it's me again. I performed nmap scan to the Linux box in question from "outside world" and it showed no port 81 open at all.

    edit: I opened port 81 from iptables and now it works :)
