hello, i used cloudflare to hide my hosting IP
but any one can get my ip easy

go to www.mysite.com:2087 and try to login with any wrong user and pas
then he will get this msg
This is admin area!!!
*> Login to NEW User Panel <*

and if he click on (Login to NEW User Panel) he will get url like this (ip:2083)
how i can fix it

Why, are you making the next SilkRoad or AlphaBay? (In that case, don't use CWP!)

i want to hide my ip cuz of DDOS attack

overseer

Use Cloudflare for anti-DDoS shielding. It should be a vital part of your infrastructure.

abutaha

but why cwp show my ip easy
how hide it and fix the problem

The only way to hide a public IP is behind a proxy like Cloudflare for incoming traffic, but then the IP is still out there.
Hence the word 'public' IP.

Unless you are planning on doing something nefarious, this doesn't matter.

just read again what i asked

I can't wrap my head around how you would want to hide a public IP on a publicly accessible web hosting platform (CWP) server. Sounds like darkweb stuff to me...

Starburst

No, if they lookup your domain name, it will point to Cloudflare, hence it's proxy service IP will show.

But if someone scans the whole IP range, then yes, your server will probably acknowledge.

That is the curse of a Public IP.
You can secure what ports a scan might find open.

But as @overseer mentioned, sound like you might be doing something darkweb'ish not wanting your IP to show at all, which again, is impossible.

then he will get this msg
This is admin area!!!
*> Login to NEW User Panel <*

and if he click on (Login to NEW User Panel) he will get url like this (ip:2083)
how i can fix it, i want it (site.com:2083 not ip:2083)

Block those ports (2030, 2031, 2086 & 2087) in CSF.

Just remember to whitelist your IP, so you don't get locked out.

If everything was setup in CWP, you should be able to access domainname.com:2083

2082 CWP User Panel
2083 CWP User panel SSL

if fixed it by another way
i changed ports 2087,2086,2031,2030 to new ports
and if any one scan my site for opened port he will scane a wrong ip (cuz i used proxy)
so no one can know the new ports

Oh really? ;)
