Restarting http remotely - 2750vn was created by stek1961
In a bold attempt to tunnel out of the firewalled environment here at work - I remotely dicked around with the ports for remote management and set them as this:

http - 80
https - none
ssh - 443

all others as default

ssh works on 443 tho not from work - must be some packet inspection going on but now I have nothing running on any sort of web port:

root@Vigor2750:~# netstat -an |grep LIST
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:53 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:21 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1723 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 :::53 :::* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 :::23 :::* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 :::443 :::* LISTEN

..just sshd on 443 which works now from my digs...

I live in Leeds but work in Dublin Mon-Fri so a remote reset isn't a good idea until Fri evening at least plus if I do that I'll most likely lose the settings I've already set - no great deal though.

In the meantime anyone know how to kick off the web-admin processes from the cli, without risking it losing connectivity totally, angry family at home? I've looked at some of the commands there but none look the part...

I'm a Unix guy so the Linuxy interface looks familiar.

you probably want something like this

> mngt rmtcfg http off

That doesn't work on the 2750's - we're LinuxWRT based AIUI...

Done a bit of research, seems the 2750 series are based on OpenWRT, been all over that site for clues, seems you use the 'uci' command, which works, but appears I've either somehow borked the http configs, or 'uci config uhttpd' doesn't work on Drayteks version...

I'm pretty sure I've broken it my running sshd on 443 where it's expects https to be running - I'm going to chance a reconfig remotely of the sshd port to std, hope something comes back, if not - reset on Friday when I get home.

Sorted! God I am a fecking Genius!

I suspected the sshd on 443 was the issue, set it back to 22 via ssh on cli, rebooted and now I have the gui back on 80/443 and httpd.conf in the process list...

So must for Draytek support when I said 'I can't access the GUI..' they said to change the settings 'in the GUI'....

Groan...
