Listen on different ports?

periko

Can the gui listen on different ports at the same time.

Example, 80, 8080, 443, 8088?

I want to open the port to access from outside, but don't want to open port 80, want to have a different port and stay away from intruders.

Inside want to have port 80 listening because I have squid+wpad running.

Is possible?

PF 2.0.3, thanks.

I'm not sure I understand. Why don't you just forward a different external port to port 80?

System –> Advanced --> TCP port

I"m not sure that's what he's asking… he wanted to run the UI twice. Once on port 80 and again on some other port.

I'm not sure how many ports the GUI can listen on, but you can NAT as many ports as you like to whichever port the GUI is listening on…

There is a catch. You will need to keep it either HTTPS or HTTP, so far as I know. Either or.

Ah sorry i didn't read right.

But the solution of kejianshi is what i'd do in such a case.
Simply forward the desired port(s) from the WAN to the LAN-interface or localhost.

Got it, port forward outside 8088 to internal 80, that could work.
Thanks guys.

And then there is the minor issue of DNS Rebind Check… I'll wait for it to crop up.
