CentOS 5 Networking :: Use Webmin To Set Up Port Forwarding/NAT On A Dual-NIC Centos 5.3 Box?
Aug 31, 2009
Can anyone here point me to a walk-through or discussion of how to use Webmin to set up port forwarding/NAT on a dual-NIC Centos 5.3 box? The layout will be simple:
Internet --- NIC1 [CentOS Box] NIC2 --- Switch to other PCs
We have a BUNCH of exposed services that are on special ports -- for example, to connect to one machine, you go in with [IP_Address]:12000, and to connect to another, [IP_Address]:12002, etc., etc. We're currently using OpenSuse 10.3 on this box, and YaST makes this criminally easy (you give it the incoming port number and the destination IP/port numbers and it just works). But OpenSuse 10.3 is nearing EOL, we're buying a new machine, and I'd like to use CentOS on the new one.
I've read the sparse Webmin documentation in their Wiki, and it leads one to believe that you simply insert a "NAT" rule. But there's obviously something they're leaving out. I *am* opening the ports in the firewall. But when I log in to [IP_Address]:port, it just times out. The port forwarding never occurs. The test in this case is SSH, and I know that SSHD is working properly because I can log into that machine just fine from another PC on the same internal subnet.
I have just set up shorewall on my router running Arch Linux. The external network is on eth0 and the internal network on eth1.I have set it up for masquerading and that works fine and I can open ports to the firewall. But I'm having trouble with port forwarding to my internal machines.The problem I have is that when port 22350 is forwarded to 192.168.1.3 on my local network, checking the port with nmap from a remote computer gives me:
i am not able to port 8080 on my CentOS VPS server.I have followed all the instuctions as mentioned on iptables wiki page.Also I am able to telnet my ip address and port number, But can not access from browser.
we are going to install ASTERISK remotely, hence the port 22 in the server has to be open ,Can somebody reply me with exact commands?I tried these commands and got these results
Command : cat /etc/services | grep xxx Result : No Such file or directory Command :netstat -nan | grep 22
I'm trying to set up my CentOS 5 box as a gateway for my home network.I've set up dhcp on my internet interface (eth0) and dhcpd on my LAN interface (eth1).I can browse the internet from my CentOS 5 box.I can ping the CentOS 5 box from my LAN.However, I can't browse the internet from my LAN.I've enabled IP forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf and I've disabled my firewall. I've saved these changes and rebooted. Again, no internet browsing from my LAN.
I am setting up a new server with 2 nics installed. Nic0 goes to the firewall and nic1 goes to the internal engineering network.
Problem is Ip forwarding is not working!
Particulars: Server Name - slick Firewall Name - gateone engineering node - crooked
Routing on slick:
From crooked ( which is inside the server (slick) with an ip address of xx.xx.221.249 the only way I can ping or anything outside of the firewall ( gateone) is to turn on IPtables with this configuration:
I don't want to use IPtables. I need the ip forwarding to work.
I'm running Centos 2.6.18-53.1.13.el5 in a VM. Currently I'm studying for my RHCT.I'm trying to enable IP forwarding so I edited this line in the /etc/sysctl.conf:
# Controls IP packet forwarding net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 Then I ran sysctl -p
everything works fine. I can log in, and local port forwarding is done. Otherwise when I use the command:
ssh user@ssh_server -R 5500:localhost:5500 -p 22
I get an error "remote port forwarding failed for listen port 5500". However when I try remote port forwarding in WinXP by use of putty there is no problem...
I have a mail server on which I would like to block port 25 on my eth0 for everyone except our external spam filter. the problem is that I want our users to be able to connect via port 10025 which is forwarded to port 25, which then is blocked...
what should I add/change to set up port forwarding of port 1000 to ip 192.168.1.200. also how to get the answer sent by 192.168.1.200 follow the same route used by the data received through port forwarding.
i am forwarding HTTP request to a internal server, it is quiet successful but access logs donot show the ip of the external m/c. Rather it shows the ip of the machine on which i have enabled port forwarding.
I have recently installed Centos 5.4 on a server with 3 network cards. I am trying to enable IP forwarding which has been successful by executing the following command:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
I tried to make this permanent by adding net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding=1 to the /etc/sysctl.conf file.
When I restart the network service I get the following code...
I have a ubuntu 9.10 on my desktop in my office and I have another ubuntu on my home desktop. Both machines are behind a router. I guess many people have already asked the same question: how to remote control the office desktop from my home desktop?Many posts discussed about solving this by setting up ssh and port forwarding. But my situation is that I cannot control the router in my office so I cannot set up any port forwarding for my office desktop. So I guess my question becomes how to remote control my office desktop without setting up any port forwarding on the office router.
I currently use a commercial VPN when working overseas for secure internet access.
I now also need to VNC to a home ubuntu desktop (which runs software 24/7 that I need to periodically check).
When overseas, I use a Ubuntu laptop and an Android tablet.
For the VNC I intend to use an SSH tunnel. So my question is: should I ALSO set up openVPN on the home computer (so I can stop paying for a commercial provider which routes all my traffic twice across the Atlantic...) or is it easier/better to use the SSH tunnel for the secure webbrowsing too? Something like a SOCKS proxy?
We have one linux machine in the office which happens to be an important firewall. I just know the basics and need to make one changeEssentially it is forward mysql traffic to another internal machine.This is the original rule (forward to 192.20.0.17) which is working
I have my mail application running on xxxx port in IPv6 and IPv4 enviornment on Linux machine (RHEL 5).I want to forward IPv4 request comming from windows client
I have a CentOS box which is Internet Facing. It has 3 LAN's connected to it which are for virtual machines.
I want to port forward port 445 to a machine on one of the LAN interfaces. I have tried various ways to get it done, but still cannot access that port from the interface. I definately know device hosting port 445 is live, as I can ping it from the CentOS box and use lynx to access it! (It's a web server)
I've been Googling about port forwarding iptables and even though there's result and I've applied it in my script, I can't make iptables forwading request to another machine so I decided to ask help.
eth0 is my Internet Interface (1.2.3.4 is the public ip) eth1 is my Lan Interface eth2 is my DMZ Interface
I have two PC's, one with slackware and one with arch, and I am trying to access the web server from the archlinux machine but i haven't manage to do that. The archlinux machine is connect to the internet via the slackware machine via a crossover cable: internet > eth0 (pc1) and ppp0 (the PPPoE connection, pc1) > eth1 (pc1) > eth0 (pc2)
pc2: ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifconfig eth0 up route add default gw 192.168.0.1 eth0 /etc/resolv.conf (The same DNS as the first PC)
And now the internet is working and on the archlinux machine, but I am not able to access the web server from LAN with a public IP. I tried many iptables port forwarding commands but none worked.
I have the wake on lan option enabled on my debian computer. If i wake it by sending:
-mac adres -internal ip in my home network -subnetmask -port 7
It all works fine, but when i try to do it from outside my network and change the ip address to the router adress it wont go on. I have also opened the port 7 in my router.
I have a server running debian squeeze and kvm to virtualize a Windoze box. It's setup to use NAT. This is because of limits on the network by the admin and unfortunately, there isn't a way to get around this.
I've setup dynamic port forwarding using Putty, SSH and Firefox.All works well when visiting normal websites (servers listening at port 80). But why can't I visit https websites?Nothing seems to be happening when I visit those.
I would like to be able to ssh to a TCP port on my server and be directly connected to the serial port @ 115200 Null modem config. Does any body know how one can do this?
I have a question regarding port forwarding. I have a fedora server, with two eth cards: eth0 ---> external IP, eth1 ----> LAN IP I use SNAT for connection sharing. I also have an internet domain hosted on this server... let's call it [URL] Anyway, one of our computers in the LAN has some kind of web server on it, which must be accessed from the internet on the port 23700.
So, using iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 23700 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.25 (the IP of the network computer) Everything works perfectly fine from outside the lan. When I type [URL], I connect to that computer. My problem is that inside the lan, typing [URL] does not work! It only works if I enter it by IP 192.168.1.25:23700 Is there any way to make the server forward my request to that specific computer even if I'm inside the LAN?
