Behind reverse proxy: Failed Loading Terminal : Websocket connection error

[sanctimon]

This is on a brand new installation of Webmin 20.21 on Ubuntu Server 22.04 using the script and then setting up the reverse proxy instructions, according to information in the FAQ.

Terminal works as expected when accessing Webmin using the local network IP:port.

Hello,

There is a more recent FAQ on a new https://webmin.com/faq website.

Hello @iliajie , I have reviewed this and the only setting I was missing regarding reverse proxy set up was this:

edit /etc/webmin/xterm/config file and add the following line:

host=webmin.example.com

I have now done this, restarted webmin, restarted apache on both reverse proxy and webmin host and the problem remains:

All I see on the miniserv.log is:

192.168.*.* [my gateway's local IP] - username [03/May/2023:12:03:36 +0000] "GET /xterm/ HTTP/1.1" 200 4003

Hello,

faq solution works perfectly, but when proxied via cloudflare, recent login ip just says 127.0.0.1
is there any way to get the actual ip.
cloudflare sends the ip in header CF-Connecting-IP

I think you're looking for Trust remote IP address provided by proxies? option which is located in Webmin ⇾ Webmin Configuration: IP Access Control page.
