Shortly after adding internal CIDR to csf.allow connection to integrated Web-UI not possible
Posted: 08 Feb 2018, 20:30
Dear all,
I just setup CSF.
My home network works within 192.168.178.0/24 .
My plan was to only (mainly) allow internal connections to and from the server on which CSF has been installed.
Therefore I started with adding 102.168.178.0/24 to csf.allow:
The first line has been added automagically on setup > with this setting [with same IP in ui.allow and opened port 6666] the integrated Web-UI works just fine.
If I comment out the first line and use the second line then shortly (1-2 minutes I assume) after restarting CSF/LFD the Web-UI is not reachable.
If I revert that change via SSH (stayed loged on) back to the original setting (first line) than the Web-UI is reachable again.
Any suggestions why this happens?
Best regards,
