View Full Version : DA listens on 2 ports?

Hello,

One of our clients reports having "cant be displayed page" page while accessing https://server_name:2222/ .
I guess it's because his ISP is blocking ports.

I wonder whether it's possible to have DA listen on 2 ports, say, 2222 and 8080. I also don't mind to have a separate instance of DA running as far as server resources are concerned, but I am not sure if 2 instances would conflict with each other.
A third alternative would be to set up SSH tunneling that would route all traffic from 8080 to 2222.

Whatever lets that client in and doesn't require any changes for other users.

Please advise. Thank you.

Hello,

It's not really designed for 2 ports.. I think tunneling for the 2nd one would be the best way if you don't want to disable 2222.

Okie, could you elaborate on how to set it up on the server side?

Would be something like:

stunnel -p /usr/local/ssl/certs/stunnel.pem -d 8080 -r localhost:2222

I've never done it myself, but that's just a guess.
