I have a server which the end client asked me to do some strange things for him due to security reason. We have two IPs for this server. 94.XX.XX.52 and 94.XX.XX.60 When we ping other servers , they see 94.XX.XX.60 but the main IP is 94.XX.XX.52 and we are able to access to the server only with 94.XX.XX.52 ! I tried to purchase license for 94.XX.XX.52 and see your system said I don't purchase license for 94.XXX.XXX.60. I changed the license to 94.XX.XX60 and I was able to install directadmin on it and when I open 94.XX.XX.52 in browser it says Apache is functioning normally but I'm not able to access to directadmin panel. 94.XX.XX.52:2222 Can you please advice me how would it possible to access the control panel using 94.XX.XX.52:2222

DA will answer on any of the ips that are on the server. Maybe you have a firewall issue. DA is not listening on 94.182.214.60 or 2222 is blocked.
 
I installed CSF and 2222 is allowed there. But I still can not access to the directadmin panel

# Allow incoming TCP ports
TCP_IN = "20,21,22,25,53,80,110,143,443,465,587,993,995,2222,35000:35999"

# Allow outgoing TCP ports
TCP_OUT = "20,21,22,25,53,80,110,113,443,587,993,995,2222"
 
nd we are able to access to the server only with 94.XX.XX.52
I don't understand. So if you already could access the server at 94.xx.xx.52 why change the license ip to the second ip?
If 52 is the main ip for your installation and mail, it's best your license should point to your main installation ip.

However, maybe the issue is a firewall or some block in the datacenter or your host?

Because directadmin servers see the second IP and we have to use that ip for licensing . but we can not access the server with the second ip.

One doesn't have anything to do with the other. Either ip can be used for licensing.
 
Either ip can be used for licensing, but only the license ip you can use for the 2222 access as far as I know.
If I try to use the second (non licensed ip) I will be automatically redirected to the main hostname. Or is that only happening because we use the ssl redirect?

That's only because of SSL. DirectAdmin is listening on every ip on the sever. The licensing ip is really for updates and to do the monthly license check.
