Mapping Hostname to Port

Hi, need some pointers on this.
Currently, I understand that to access vestacp, one needs to navigate to "IP:8083". My question is, is there a way to make "Hostname:8083" also resolve to the same place as "IP.8083"?

Thank you.

Hi

You can access to vestacp with any domain

domain.tld:8083

If you what a proxy pass and access to vestacp with hostname.tld you can do it, there are some tutorials in forum to do this

But yes, you can access with your hostname:8083 or any domain that poin with A entry in your DNS to your server IP, this is by default

Hi Skamasle,

Unfortunately, going to anydomain:8083 DOES NOT automatically go to vestacp at all. Which is why i am asking. I am on debian 9.x. Any ideas where i might've gone wrong? Or where i can manually do this?

Do you have the A record pointing to your server IP? Check your DNS records!
