Port 81
| Posted by duttyrock, 08-18-2012, 07:02 PM |
| Until last night when i signed up for CloudFlare lighttpd worked perfect on port 81. For some odd reason my streaming videos will not load about 2 hours later. I ran a ssh command and it says port 81 is being used. Would love to kill that process or find a way for lighttpd to listen to port 81 again.

| Should be able to do a service restart on lighttpd, but if not, find the pid for it via:
netstat -tap | grep :81
Then kill via: kill -9 pid and start the service again
Also, are you sure the firewall on the server is still allowing 81 ? What about your own connection, is it blocking 81 connections?

| It's not on my end, it's CloudFlare. I know because i switch back to GoDady nameserver and everything works normal again. So ClounFlare is tampering with port 81.
I contact them and a guy said i need to create a subdomain, im still waiting on a response on what to do after i create the subdomain with GoDaddy.

| Does cloudflare do port 81? I think they only do port 80. Click on the cloud to disable/enable cloudflare proxy service on your website if you have it enabled. Then tests port 80 again. This is why the default cloudflare template adds a A record that named "direct".

| Which one is the proxy exactly? Only 2 cloud is orange, "www (Type A)" and "mywebsite.com (Type CNAME)" everything else is grey cloud.
"direct" is already grey

| We don't handle streaming content well & that's why the recommendation was made to move streaming content to a subdomain we don't touch. Traffic not on the ports below should be on subdomains we don't touch in your DNS settings (gray cloud).
Ports CloudFlare can proxy:
80
443
2052
2053
2082
2083
2086
2087
2095
2096
8080
8443
8880

| It works, i just had to grey cloud "www".
What benefits did i lose by grey clouding "www"???

| We won't proxy or cache anything that is grey clouded. That goes direct to your server in that instance.
