Shared Hosting Firewall warnings #4

Open notbasetwo opened 2 years ago

notbasetwo commented 2 years ago

Quite a lot of the issues I have seen surrounding connecting to servers in hosting modules or doing WHOIS checks are likely down to the end-user's local configuration.

I suspect a lot of them are due to over zealous firewalls implemented by shared hosts (blocking non-standard outbound ports, or more likely just using the CSF defaults).

When writing the documentation for shared host installation/documentation for integrations - it could be worth mentioning to try and avoid those kinds of issues being raised when it's nothing to do with the codebase.

Yep, I'll add something about the ports in the installation (or maybe after installation) section.
