Do any of you know of server CPanels that run on port 80 and allow uploading through the CPanel? My school blocks basically every port except 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS. I can't upload anything anymore, and its a pain in the ass to send them to my brother to have him upload them. The CPanel my web site uses now is on 2082 and that is blocked as well, and my host said it can't be changed.

A friend of mine might host my site now, but I'd like to find a CPanel on port 80 that he could install for me.

your school sucks

cpanel runs on 2082 by default. if it listed on 80, THAT would he the page loaded up and not YOUR page. if you don't understand how web serving works, then i'm not going to explain it.

i suggest you look for a web proxy to go through. this SHOULD get you around the limitations imposed on you by your school.

I didn't really need an attitude with this thread.

I know my school sucks, but almost all college networks are like this.

CPanel has its own directory so it wouldn't load by default unless it was in the parent directory.

I've tried port tunneling, proxies, and some other things and haven't been successful in the least.

well your school doesn't suck, but the IT dept does. i really hate it when institutions of learning impose rules like this. i understand why as i earn my living consulting on cyber security but how are you supposed to learn about web serving, etc when you can't try it for yourself? thankfully i had a full open network connection in school

so NOTHING works? vpn tunnels, socks proxies, http proxies? wow that blows

I finally found a program that works. I guess its a tunneling program. It's called Hopster, but the free trial is too slow and has ads, and it costs a shitload for the full version. Do you know of any other programs like this that are free?

crap I had an awesome program, but I forget what it was now, we used it at circuitcity for the same thing, I'll try and find it for you. ;)

Thanks man, that would be great. If I get caught doing this I have a legit excuse, its solely for uploading to my person web sites that I own and pay for. I have a right to be able to access them.

^^ oh yeah at circuitcity we were sort of doing it against policy and all but we were the computer tech's there so no one really cared about it.
I remember I got the software from a friend, I'll call him tomorrow and see if he still has it and can get it to me.

You could run a proxy app on your home computer that would do it for you.

Connect to your computer on port 80, Your computer connects to cpanel on port 2082, then sends the HTML back to your school computer over port 80.

If you're running windows XP, then you could run a remote-help server (rdesktop) on port 80, then use an rdesktop client at school to connect to your computer.

You can install VNC on your home computer, run it off port 80. Get a VNC client at school to connect to your computer, then do anything you want as if you were on your own computer.

Another FREAKIN awesome tool:

Simple config. It would be something like your.home.ip.addy:80 destination.ip.addy:2082

This is the proxy method i mentioned in my last post. When you run that app on your machine, it listens on port 80. Anytime you make a connection to your machine on port 80, it will connect to the destination computer and destination port, then send the data back to you over port 80.
