Why does cloudron block ports?
-
Hey, i've been trying cloudron for now but i have noticed it blocks ports because i can't connect to any other ports unless it was setup by cloudron ie. minecraft (25565) and BeamMP (30814)
Is there something i'm missing? How can i open these ports again in cloudron since they work out of the box on stock ubuntu without cloudron but stop working after installing cloudron -
@cumpal Cloudron expects to be the only one running on the server, so for security reasons it locks it down unless needed by Cloudron or any of the apps on it. If you need to modify it, I think you can just update the firewall rules manually in Ubuntu, though I've not done that part myself as no need for it yet. but hopefully that at least explains why it's locked down. You may want to review the Cloudron docs on security features too.

In addition to what @d19dotca said, you can whitelist extra ports using https://docs.cloudron.io/networking/#whitelist-ports . Please use this at your own risk, we don't recommend installing other software alongside cloudron .
