logzilla frontend access via ssh tunnel

[0n1x]

Hi logzilla team,

I'm having an issue connecting to logzilla UI from a ssh tunnel. (I'm trying to avoid having to open my logging server to the WAN).

Basically I'm doing the following from my local desktop:

ssh logger.mybox -L 8899:localhost:8899 (The logzilla apache instance is listening under port 8899)

And on my browser desktop I can access the instance with the tunnel up via http://localhost:8899 and I'm having no issues hitting the login page and I'm able to login. Right after the page is blank and under my apache error log I'm seeing:

PHP Fatal error:  License server invalid - does your license belong to a different server? Please visit http://www.logzilla.pro for assistance. in Unknown on line 0, referer: http://localhost:8899/login.php

Is the license key dependent on the http request URL?

Thanks!

Hi,
The license key is tied to your LZ server's eth0 IP and MAC.
ssh tunnels work fine (We have a customer I use one with for support).
If you are seeing that message, it means that your license is tied to an IP/MAC that is not on the server.
You can paste both your ifconfig and license output here and I will check them both for you if you like.
