    I need to know how to change the webconfigurator listening port and open access on that port to the internet via shell.

    My terminal server took a dump, I need to get to the web config and the only way I can access pfsense is through SSH.

      You can configure the port that ssh listens on at system>advanced. To allow access to it from the outside just create a firewallrule at firewall>rules, wan tab that permits access to tcp source any, destination wan ip, port <ssh port="">.</ssh>

          Edit config.xml

          <webgui><protocol>https</protocol>
                                  <certificate><private-key></private-key></certificate></webgui>

          Remove /tmp/config.cache immediately after saving.
