Re: [webmin-l] Accessing webmin from work via proxy

[Hamid H. <ha...@mo...>]

I think the quick solution is that to use REDIRECT feature in iptables. 
just imagine that your webmin is working on port 10000 and for any 
reason you can't access port 10000. You may access to it via port 25 ( 
or whatever you want ) with this iptables rule :

iptables -A PREROUTING -d server_ip_address -p tcp -m tcp --dport 25 -j 
REDIRECT --to-ports 10000

now you can try : http://server_ip_address:25/
you may change port 25 with any port that you have access .
