Setup Direct Admin In Internal Network

[phancuong]

Hi expert,

I'm trying to setup Direct Admin on my local IP address: 192.168.1.103
And IP listen is: 1.1.2.86 (IP has changed for hide).

https://www.directadmin.com/lan.shtml

I have setup everything OK except step 4, it just said

Cannot Execute Your Request
Details
Cannot find IP

I have ignore this step and try to setup reverse proxy by nginx for resolve specific domain for directadmin instead 1.1.2.86:2222

I choose shorewall and nginx to handle this. From now, everything fine. It's working well.

But I started to login the admin account, it disconnect everything when I click to the feature. I have seen the debug log here:

Yes, it logout everytime. and I can not do anything when login many many time like that.


So my question is:

1. How can I use directadmin without login like that? I just Nginx and Shorewall. Does I can solve this as config directadmin level?

2. If (1) works, then when I create a domains? Does it the DNS server resolve all of domains? I cannot define for firewall nginx for match with directadmin apache (or nginx).

Please help me. I'm a newbie come from VN, If bad english please understanding in my situation.

Thank you.

Hello,

You really need to link your IPs, i.e. complete step #4 otherwise you might have various issues.

Before linking you should add the both internal and external IPs into your nic using Directadmin interface.
