Fedora Networking :: How To Manage SMB To Work With Firewall
Mar 25, 2009
How can I make iptables allow my windows client to see my PC / smb shares? When I turn off the fedora firewall it just works fine, but how can I manage smb in a more secure way via iptables to work?
Code:
iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT
But where do I get the correct address from? Will this example allow only 192.168.0.0 (is this a valid IP at all, usable by any PC? ) or anyone in the network (aka 192.168.0.*) to access my share?

I would like to manage the firewall from the command line or with files VIA puppet, however this peice of software seems pretty complicated compared to the other distributions and generic iptables commands / configurations we push out.

I'm using Fedora 14 with gnome as my GUI.As you know , there's gui tool which manages network adapter , either wireless or wired.After every login into fedora , I should click on network manager icon on taskbar and choose System eth0 to establish and enable eth0. I want it to be done automatically.
Previously , I used opensuse 11.4.It has a tool in yast which allows you to choose how to configure your network adapters , traditional or knetworkmanager mode.I can't find this like tool in gnome on fedora.
how I can configure network adapters to start or not during startup?

I got myself into some trouble this afternoon when I thought I would give xmonad a try on my HP mini 210 that runs f14 lxde spin. so, after installing xmonad and dmenu and playig around a bit I found out that my wifi doesn't work. I tried ifup but I get the 'usage: .." response which I have read means that the programm can't find a configuration file for the device (and I am pretty sure that some programm was managing these files for me up until now).
I have tried to run system-config-network, which defaults to the tui version for some reason, I guess at this point that the normal gui is based on the gnome backend or something? Anyway, the terminal version just outputs a bunch of info about the devices that exist on the system (eth1 the broadcom wifi device is also listed) and then exits.
Anyway, in the normal lxde desktop you could use the gnome network manager, I guess this is not the case when running xmonad. So how do I do this? Links to documentation are welcomed. EDIT: some info about how I get to xmonad, the machine uses the standard LXDM login and from there I just select the xnomad window manger before logging in. I mean I am not trying to use it on top of anything else (eg. xmonad/gnome or xmonad/lxde etc.)

I am learning to setup firewall in my home for that i have selected four system(sys1,sys2....sys4) for testing .I have configured sys2 to act as a firewall with two NIC. sys3 and sys4 are inside the firewall . sys1 is not connected to firewall for testing purpose.
the IP assignments are follows :
sys1 : ( fedora, not connected to firewall i am thinking, But i am not sure )
IP : 192.168.2.1 ,
gateway : blank
dns1 : blank
dns2 : blank
sys2 firewall ,IPTABLES )
code....
what happened is that sys1(not connected to firewall) can ssh to sys4(connected,inside firewall),since the rules are written not to ssh form sys1 to sys4..
then I came to know whatever the request I give, It directly goes as sys1 --> sys4. Not as sys1-----> sys2(firewall)---> sys4 .and the firewall is not filtering and processing anything for both inbound and outbound (i think it's my mistake some where). the requests are directly going inside without firewall.

The firewall in Fedora 12 seems to block UPnP by default, but opening port 1900 for UDP, as I have seen suggestedes not resolve the problem.have the following three scenarios:Firewall Enabled: Transmission cannot open a port by UPnPFirewall Enabled (1900 UDP allowed): Transmission cannot open a port by UPnPFirewall Disabled: Transmission opens a port via UPnP fineAny ideas? Yes, the port that I'm trying to open is also allowed. Router is a Linksys BEFSR41 v4.3, should you care

Even though I've set up HTTPS to be trusted, it still blocks my school's https site: "mnsu.edu/eservices" same with SAMBA and SSH.
If enter the GUI and authenticate as root, change anything and apply, then exit: it works fine and so does SAMBA. However, after restarting, everything stops working again.
yet secure firewall configuration that doesn't require any login or headaches.

Since I installed FC11 I can't get vpnc to work (I always getno response from target").Also I can't ping any external IP even with the firewall disabled.What I see strange is that I had the same configuration in FC10 and the router configuration seems okay to me:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.64.64.64 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
[code]...

I want to write a custom rule to allow all connections to the ip addresses on my local network (192.168.2.2 through ...99) but I don't know how. I know adding a custom rule asks me to read a file and put it in "iptables" format, but I don't know how...

I'd like to have an easy way to configure firewall, e.g. eable/disable what mythtv needs, or enable/disable what mediatomb needs. Basically open/close a few tcp and/or udp ports for all interfaces (I have two), or just one of them.
Is there a way to add my own trusted services for the firewall?
Other recommended ways to do that? Or just write a simple shell script?

I'm working on setting up access for our developer via Telnet, we are on a local network behind a physical firewall. I set up the standard Telnet service for Fedora15 and from localhost I can login via any user and root.... However I cannot login from another terminal on the LAN, even though I can ping and FTP to the fedora15 box. I added the firewall rules for telnet, that did not work, so I disabled the firewall, still cannot get a connection via port 25. I feel either port 25 is closed in another manor or the telnet is restricted to the localhost.
Also I cannot login to root to configure the Firewall Desktop GUI, only standard users, is this an issue? I also cannot login to the console as root even though I use the correct password.I can only su to root and sometimes it is a PITA. There must be some settings to clear these issues up...

I have a computer which has a public IP.My ISP has allowed only port 22 for my machine to be accessed outside from internet.I want rest of my computers which are connected to this machine be accessible via SSH on internet.I can configure IPTABLES to route different ports to internal machines but since ISP has given only one port for the gateway how can I go for it any guesses. I came across some thing reverse SSH tunneling but that has to keep the connection alive all the time at gateway I want my trusted people to be directly able to access the machines on LAN to which they have account to login in this scenario.

I'm running ubuntu lucid and i was thinking in purchasing one or more extra wifi cards to try to configure my computer to manage different conections at the same time, with different isp's. The thing is that I'm not quite sure if what i want to do is actually possible.
The easiest way that crossed my mind was to try to configure a / multiple virtual machines that are redirected threw proxies to ubuntu and try to configure that each proxie port goes threw a different internet gateaway. This way i might be able to divide threw different sessions of JDownloader, installed on each virtual machine, the things i want to download. The negative aspect of this idea is having multiple jdownloader sessions will make my laptop work to almost 100% for sure...
Another thought i have was to make JDownloader manage its downloads in only one session redirecting them to my internet conections; the negative thing is that i think i will have to try to modify its source and learn java...
And well my last possible configuration i had in mind was to try to make ubuntu directly add up all my internet conections manage as if it was one. the negative thing here is that i might not be able to get multiple downloads from some sites
Well, all this where just thoughts, im struggling whether to buy another card or not to try to setup any of this configurations but im not really sure if any of them are actually possible. Is there an easy way to manage this?
I just want to take the most out of my internet conections... if i'm at college i have to options that are quite slow, adding them up with two cards would be great, i might also be able to add a third and a fourth conection. Also if i'm on a coffe and i need some bandwith i could try to make it go with an open network arround, etc.

if ubuntu netbook remix have a built-in firewall, and how does this firewall work when i install applications like Valknut? Do i have to change firewall, or does it make the changes automatically? If i need to manually change open ports in firewall, then i want a easy to understand gui, if there is one. I want to add port-ranges, with options [tcp],[udp],[both] or single ports with same options. Im looking at Guarddog, since i installed all deps for Guidedog. how Guarddog would behave with ubuntu's config?

I am using Fedora 13 and have an intermittent problem with the printer(HP d2540). Periodically, the printer will not finish a print job or the software leaves some form of command that interferes with the subsequent jobs. I haven't had much luck finding the print queue. Typically, the print jobs are coming out of the OpenOffice word processing segment and I am not sure whether there is an actual problem or simply a page formatting error.

I think I have encountered a problem in the way that lucid handles proxy servers. I was having problems running apt-get update due to a firewall at my work. I also noted that I was getting 403 Forbidden for wget. So I went to System -> Preferences -> Network Proxy from my account (which has administrator privileges) and input the http address for the proxy server, and then clicked the button to "Apply Systemwide...".
Following that change, wget worked from my account, but whenever I tried to sudo apt-get update, I got the 403 forbidden response again, even though I could wget the same files that apt-get reported as forbidden. I figured that this was a problem with the root account, and so I typed
Code:
However, upon exiting from the root account, and trying to run sudo apt-get update again, I got the 403 forbidden code again!
So, it seems that the proxy settings are not being applied systemwide.
