In order to have secure access to my cpanel, I need port 2083 open on the server, right? But I can't connect to https://domain.com:2083 through a browser, "nmap localhost" shows that port 2083 is not in use, and I can't connect to it with telnet (compare responses on these two ports):
# telnet localhost 2086
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
^]
telnet> Connection closed.
#
# telnet localhost 2083
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
#
Disabling portsentry does not help (and now that I think about it, it shouldn't be related to this).
It seems that some kind of service or daemon must be running on port 2083. But what should that daemon be? How do I start it? Shouldn't this be enabled by default?
Thanks,
Scot
