MPOS: How do you open port 3333 for stratum on a new server?

[BitcoinTate]

I have installed MPOS & Stratum Mining on a new 1&1 VPS with Ubunutu 12.04. I used this guide: https://github.com/TheSerapher/php-mpos/wiki/Quick-Start-Guide

Everything is set up and working. I can login to the site and can add workers. I have the litecoind test wallet configured and it is recognized. I have added a virtual host for the website with port 80 to the MPOS/public folder. I also did the same thing with port 3333. Ubuntu firewall is turned off.

When I attempt to connect to the pool with a miner it appears that port 3333 is not open and is not being listened to by stratum.

Minerd connection reads:

JSON decode failed(1): '[' or '{' expected near 'HTTP'
JSON decode failed(1): '[' or '{' expected near 'Date'

sudo netstat -tpln | grep 3333  reads:

tcp        0      0 <serverIP>:3333     0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      3283/apache2

Stratum mining is running, but only the Apache virtual host I created opens port 3333. Shouldn't the port read 0.0.0.0:3333 or ::::3333 if it was open by stratum? Do I need to point port 3333 to another folder besides MPOS/public?

Any help is appreciated!

did you guys get this stratum problem sorted? I am in same boat, I have my stratum connected to litecoind but cant see port 3333 for stratum being listened to on netstat. So i get the message on mpos saying they tried to poke stratum, but if i change all to port 9332 the message goes away, any ideas

Never did get it working on the 1&1 server it was hosted on. Near as I can figure it was a backend firewall on their end I did not have access too that was blocking it.
