Hi
I made a mistake and locked myself out to a Xen VPS (centos) created and managed by cloudmin.
Due to a wrong rule in Linux Firewall.
Is there a way to reset this or is a reinstall the only options?
Status:
Closed (fixed)

One thing you could do is :
unfortunately this xen has no File transfers. Probably because it has only Webmin and no virtualmin.
All other instances do have Transfer Files..
I tried the graphical console but that has issues with commands and logins. its pretty much useless and getting odd characters when typing
Ill try the console once more, else Ill do a reinstall.
thanks
allright
I managed to do this over the graphical console. it was hard but the effort was rewarded..
all is fine again

Great!
The "Transfer Files" page should work fine even if Webmin is not installed, as it works by accessing the Xen instance's filesystem directly. However, it only works if the instance is completely down, or running fully.
aha I can see the Transfer Files now that the VPS is totally accessible again.
I did not see it when it was shut down, so that you know (may be by design or a bug then?).
thanks ronald
