alexfung Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Through my office firewall I cannot access strange port numbers like 2082. Why is 2082 chosen? Is there a security benefit? Is there a way I can access cpanel at port 80? Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Sorry there used to be a way to use a proxy to connect to port 80 but I don't think it is possible any longer. Quote
jmfrey Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) Sorry there used to be a way to use a proxy to connect to port 80 but I don't think it is possible any longer. I've just run into a snag where ports 2082/2083 are not open to me any longer. I was unsuccessful in getting these ports opened by the powers to be. I posted about this in January, 2006, but was able to get to the ports needed. Now I'm completely blocked. Is there a reason why proxying through port 80/443 has been disallowed? Does anyone have any alternative solutions I can try to get around this? I did try to find a public proxy, but most are blocked as well using a blacklist. Those that I could reach were unreliable.
