What's on ports 2083/2087?

[Scot Hacker]

I'm preparing to migrate a CGP install to a host with cPanel/WHM web host
manager installed. I found that I was not able to access cPanel on its
secure https interface on port 2087. Discovered that stopping CGP and
restarting cPanel allowed this access. Changed the order of startup daemons
in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d so that cPanel starts before CGP, and now both cPanel
and CGP are happy. But I assume CGP no now longer can do its thing on
port 2087.

My question is: What aspect of CGP utilizes ports 2083 and/or 2087? Am I
losing any critical CGP functionality by letting cPanel use these ports
instead?

Thanks,
Scot

CGPro itself doesn't use these two ports, except if you changed some listeners to use them.
It may also be an external helper which use these ports.

Make sure it is CommuniGate or a CommuniGate helper. Try these
commands, it should tell you exactly what's using the port.

fuser -avun tcp 2083
fuser -avun tcp 2087

Hmm... The only external helpers I have are CGPSA and CGPAV.

fuser -avun tcp 2083
fuser -avun tcp 2087

Great tip, thanks. So this gets more and more curious. If I stop both CGP
and cpanel, then start CGP, nothing is using these ports, according to
fuser. And yet, the order of startup is critical -- if CGP launches before
cpanel, ports 2083 and 2087 are inaccessible. Very odd.

Thanks,
Scot
