Hi @ultrapep, I dont believe you can restrict on FQDN but you can add an IP Access rule either in the Global or Domain Details sections. Note that this will restrict all protocol, not just the web panel to that IP.

Alternativly, just add a firewall rule on the server OS/firewall to only allow 443 from a specific IP or range.

Are you trying to stop users from accessing the site via https://127.0.0.1 for example, and only permit https://mysite.local?

Honestly I'm not too familiar with SERV-U FTP but normally I would think of using IIS URL Rewrite for this. But I'm not sure what this product uses for its web server. That would determine your options and method.

We allow only 443 port.

But I still can login by untrusted cert and to direct IP.

If I could make a good opsec recommendation... edit your last post and either remove the photo or blur/black out your address bar and logos etc.

Serv-U Managent > Domain Details > IP Access > Add a rule for your IP, all other IPswill be rejected

Hi @calc2014 I think @ultrapep is looking to deny accessing the server directly via its serverside IP address, not a specific client source.
