Title: SME 6 - No port 980 to access Server Manager via SSH?
Post by: Marco Ranieri on December 15, 2003, 06:11:08 AM

I just downloaded SME 6. Looks good.

One thing I am used to doing in 5.6 that has changed in 6 is that you can no longer use http://server:980 to access server manager. I tunnel port 980 via SSH to access server manager remotely. (Tunneling was necessary because port 980 was only allowed internally for security reasons - to prevent external access by prying eyes, etc.)

How can we access the server manager using SSH again? What port is now used in version 6? I do not like having to use the remote access via SSL option.

Thank you.

I am using SSH to tunnel port 980 with V6.0 and it is working fine.
Tunnel: localhost:980
Access via: http://localhost:980

For some reason I dont understand, I do not come trough with a port 980 tunneling to my 5.6. I tried with a slightly variant of the adressing mentioned above, and then I came trough: http://localhost:80/server-manager Thanks for the help !!
