pkg_edit.php does REDIRECT on SSH-tunnel

[siegmarb]

Hi folks,

before 2.6 of pfsense i was able to access pfsense web-interface via SSH-tunnel. Now if i access

https://localhost:8090/pkg_edit.php?xml=zabbixagent.xml&id=0

I see a redirect to /.

Is this a known and new limitation and are there any workarounds available?

It all works fine if I'm in the same subnet as the firewall.

Thank you.

I could work around by having the fw's hostname in my local hosts-file and access that instead of localhost.
