Recreating WHM Host Access Control in CSF (for Alma Linux)

I'm trying to migrate a WHM/CPanel server from Centos 7 to Alma Linux 8. In Alma Linux, Host Access control does not allow the same configuration as Centos. In Centos host access control you can select the Daemon, the IP(s), and Allow or Deny. So for example in my Centos config I allow my IP to acce...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

Just an update... cPanel support escalated the ticket to a Level 2 analyst who spent 2 1/2 hours investigating. His response back to me was extremely lengthy and detailed showing all the items he ruled out. His final conclusion is similar to what @RZadmin noted which is that this issue most likely i...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

After making a big stink to cPanel support about this issue, I asked that my ticket be escalated to a Level 2 analyst. Finally, someone looked into it and indeed found that this could be a cPanel issue: Looking into this, I found a case with our developers where UPCP was modifying rules on servers w...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

Ok, so cPanel support responded and basically showed me what I already knew, that when the firewall is on, under Chain ALLOWIN, IP's are being blocked. What he did show me was that it is not all IP that are being blocked. He stated that I needed to edit the IP Tables Rules to include all IP's. Howev...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

Actually, maybe its not port 80 being blocked... I tried:

telnet domain.com 80
telnet domain.com 443

and got successful connections both times....

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

This issue has now reappeared again after almost 2 months. I thought rebuilding the CSF configuration filed solved the issue but this morning I saw that CSF had failed to update to the latest version automatically. I shut off firewall and forced update to v14.15. Restarted firewall and now connectio...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

@Serigio - The configs were absolutely identical. I opened the config in a browser window before I reinstalled CSF in a different browser window. After installation I copied each setting, one by one...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

I ended up removing CSF completely, and then reinstalling it.. again. But this time instead of using the backup settings file, I manually adjusted and redid every setting (with the same exact settings as before) and saved it. Its been about 12 days now and no issues.... yet... However, one of the ot...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

@d265 The firewall has been reinstalled fresh at least 8 times over the last 5 months. After a fresh install it usually works for about 2 months according to the notes I'm looking at... Its an odd problem because we have 5 servers that are basically clones. Out of the 5, only 3 keep having this issu...

Re: CSF Blocking Access to All Accounts (WHM/CPANEL)

So the firewall was off... I enabled it, and then tried to go to a few sites on the server for which I received "Forbidden Screen"... here is what the log looks like after restart: Nov 19 14:42:13 zeus lfd[29395]: daemon started on zeus.xxxxxxxxx.com - csf v14.12 (cPanel) Nov 19 14:42:13 z...
