Fedora Networking :: OpenVPN And Remote Port Forwarding

Feb 10, 2009

I've recently installed OpenVPN on my dedicated server (Fedora) in order to have full internet access for all of my WinXP clients. In case somebody is interested in the details of the OpenVPN installation, I followed this documentation: Rootserver-as-OpenVPN-Gateway. The installation runs quire nicely, I'm able to surf the net and even file-sharing programs work on the XP clients - at least to some extent. There is a slight problem though: the file-sharing programs complain that they have a "NAT problem" or that they are "Firewalled".

Most likely, this problem can be addressed by configuring remote port forwarding (RPF) on the server. The only routing rules which I've added on the server during the OpenVPN installation are these:
Code:
# initialize natting for openvpn
iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 10.66.66.0/24 -j MASQUERADE
Let's assume a certain application on a client is listening on e.g. port 1234. How do I configure RPF for this port on the server side.

Fedora Networking :: Port Forwarding For Remote NFS?

Mar 31, 2011

I'm trying to implement remote NFS in our network

So I read a lot of posts on the Internet, but I don't understand which ports I have
to open/forward for this.

On some posts I see a lot of ports, I don't want to do this.

If this is the case, and I would set up NFS through an ssh tunnel, then do I only need the ssh port and does this mean it will always work if the server is reachable through ssh?

Or is this wishful thinking ?

Ubuntu Networking :: Error - Remote Port Forwarding Failed For Listen Port 5500

Aug 7, 2010

When I use the following command:

ssh user@ssh_server -L 5500:localhost:5500 -p 22

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...

Networking :: Shorewall: Port Forwarding Port Is Closed Even After Forwarding?

Dec 12, 2009

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:

Code:
PORT STATE SERVICE
22350/tcp closed unknown

Ubuntu Security :: SSH Remote Port Forwarding

May 13, 2010

I'm trying to SSH into my home computer from a remote location outside of my house's LAN and can't figure out remote port fowarding.

The guide here says to use the following:

Code:

I've tried connecting to my home computer through many combinations of the syntax listed above, read the man file, and looked online for help. But can't find out the proper syntax or a good guide that isn't written for Windows users using Putty.

Let's assume for the sake of simplicity that the public IP address of my home SSH server is 123.123.123.123, the private IP address of my home SSH server is 192.168.1.100, my home SSH port is 2222, and the SSH port at my current location is is 22. How would I write out the command?

Every time I try to connect I get a "connection times out" error.

Fedora Networking :: Port Forwarding Does Not Work

Mar 22, 2009

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?

Fedora Networking :: Port Forwarding Not Working?

Apr 23, 2009

I am running Fedora Core 10 and KDE 4.2.1. My KTorrent is having trouble finding online peers lately. I suspect this is a port forwarding issue. I have set up my router to forward port 4444 (UDP) and port 56000 and more (TCP) to my machine's IP address. I have also set my local firewall (system-config-firewall) to allow these ports through.But when I try to test ports 4444 and 56000 via this Open Port Check Tool, it tells me they are closed

Fedora Networking :: Interface Refuses Port Forwarding Or NAT

Oct 29, 2010

I have a set up with a computer that has two network cards and is connected to two networks. Both networks connect to the internet via separate routers that have DHCP enabled. I can set one of the routers up to do port forwarding to the computer without any complications but if I want to do the same on the other router the port forwarding from it doesn't work and I can't reach the system.

I know for a fact that the services are accessible from both networks and both routers can forward ports to other computers in their network. The networks are 10.10.0.1/24 and 172.22.0.1/24. I've tried turning off iptables but that didn't change anything.

Is there any kind of setting that could prevent the interface on the computer to reject traffic using NAT or something?

If I disable the interface on the working network (ifdown eth1) then suddenly eth0 on the other networks starts accepting requests sent to it via the router that does the port forwarding. I do however want to emphasize that services work just fine as long as the requests originate from either of the networks they are on.

Fedora Networking :: Port Forwarding For Apache Server At Home Network

Fedora Networking :: Port Forwarding From Fedora To VirtualBox

Mar 8, 2011

I am using Fedora 14 x86_64 as the host and Windows XP under VirtualBox 4.0.4. I have added two ports (TCP and UDP) to the firewall settings in 'other ports' in the Fedora firewall setings. Do i need to do this?I noticed the port forwarding option in the Fedora's firewall settings which asks for either the ports to be forwarded to either local or an ip address. Do i need to do anything here?

In the settings under VirtualBox under Network adapter 1 (which is enabled) and attached to NAT, there is a port forwarding option in the advanced settings. Can the host and the guest port be the same number? If i use 'open port checker' to check if the tcp port is open in windows xp, will it work as it does in firefox under Fedora?

Ubuntu Networking :: How To Ssh 9.10 Without Port Forwarding?

Nov 21, 2010

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.

Ubuntu Networking :: SSH - VNC - No-IP And Port Forwarding

Mar 26, 2011

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?

Networking :: Iptables Not Port Forwarding?

Aug 14, 2010

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)

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 445 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.0.2:445

Networking :: Port Forwarding 80 To LAN (Web Server)

Feb 3, 2010

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)

PC1:
ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -A FORWARD -i ppp0 -o eth1 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o ppp0 -j ACCEPT

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.

Ubuntu Networking :: SSH Port Forwarding For Web Server

This should be easy but for some reason its not working. I don't have admin rights on one of my local networks to open the firewall for port 80 to make my server accessible remotely (from the internet). I have a remote server (OpenVZ VPS) and I want to port forward so that [url]:8080 will point to my localhost:80 from the internet itself (i can get it to work on the remote VPS server's local network)...

How could I accomplish this? Basically, I am trying to serve webpages from behind a firewall using a VPS as a hub.
