I'm currently tunnelling to my Ubuntu pc at home from my laptop in order to bypass my schools false-positive prone filter. Is there a way to record traffic that both comes to and is delivered by my pc?

I'm new to iptable configuration. I've set up a VPN using DD-WRT on my router and it works fine. However the VPN company does not allow port 25 traffic (in case of spammers) so now I can't get my emails sent out.
I'm guessing I can add some rules to my iptable so that all traffic except port 25 traffic can go out through the VPN tunnel. And hopefully, all port 25 traffic will go out through the normal Internet connection.code...
1.Making a Home server connect using ssh tunnel to a remote server ( to bypass proxy )
2. Making the home server accept connections as a gateway and forward anything that comes to it to the ssh tunnel connection of the remote server.
3. Making any client that puts the home server as a gateway in the network configuration gets a the tunnel connection to the remote server.
Home Server: ubuntu
Remote server: ubuntu
I wanted to tell my server to block all traffic but US only traffic. So i followed this guide:[URL].. Now I know, it's the best way to help prevent hackers/crackers (doesn't matter to me what they are called. I just have to stop them). My server only deals with US clients anyways so might as well just start right there for my server's security before getting into the brute force and injection preventions. So I got it all done compiled everything moved to the proper directory. I then started to setup my iptables. Like so
Code: iptables -F INPUT
iptables -F OUTPUT
iptables -I INPUT 1 -s *.*.*.* -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT 2 -s *.*.*.* -p tcp -j ACCEPT
[Code]...
After seeing that i went digging in the code and figured it was something todo with memory allocation.
I installed the PPTP Client [URL] and can successfully connect to my VPN (creates interface ppp0). The problem is, I'm trying to tunnel all of my traffic on my system through the connection. I've seen conflicting howtos and scripts including pptpclient's documentation (the ip-up and ip-down scripts don't work). How does one simply (even if I type it manually) tunnel the traffic?
System Info:
OS: Debian Squeeze, Kernel 2.6.32-5-686
GUI: Gnome (standard one from netisnt unstable install)
Main interface: eth1
PPTP interface: ppp0
I know this has probably been solved multiple times, but I've searched the forum to no avail. I have a PPTP server setup properly with all ports forwarded correctly. A remote machine can connect and authenticate just fine. They get their IP assigned and everything.
The problem is that no traffic is being routed through the tunnel. Or, rather it is but the server doesn't seem to handle it. In a web browser I just get an error message. On a windows client I ran ipconfig and found a gateway address had not been assigned through the VPN tunnel. Could this be the problem? If so, how can I fix it?
Here is what I need to accomplish but somehow not getting where I need:
Server A:
-OpenVPN Server
-NIC1 = Internet (vnet - public IP address)
-Tun0 - 172.16.0.1
Server B:
-OpenVPN Client - Connects to Server A as a Client.

Recently I notice that when I'm connected to an vpn server (pptpd) and I'm using it as a default gateway my download and upload speed decreases almost to the half of the usual speed. I made a test using iptables in order to count how much GRE packets are generated (except the real traffic itself) in that way:
Code:
iptables -I INPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT
iptables -I OUTPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -s 172.16.10.101 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -d 172.16.10.101 -j ACCEPT
The first 2 rules match all GRE packets between the pptpd server and client, and the next rules - the traffic between the server and the client.
When I turn the counters to zero and begin to generate traffic (to browse, to download etc.) I see that the GRE packets are even more than these in the FORWARD chain.
So, my question is first of all is my test correct and is it true that so much gre traffic is being generated during the browsing (it becames clear that the traffic is double than if the pptpd wasn't used as a gateway) and if yes - can that traffic be reduced?
I have an Ubuntu VPS running 10.10 x86_64
This is what is in my /etc/network/interfaces right now.
Code:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 67.202.x.x
gateway 67.202.x.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
My server.conf
code....
I can get the VPN server running and everything connects fine from the client. I just don't know how to tunnel all the traffic through the VPS because it involves making the bridge which I'm having trouble with. What exactly am I supposed to put in /etc/network/interfaces?
this is the conky code I found, that displays on conky the way I like, problem is everything shows as 0bytes, and stays that way.
Code:
# UBUNTU-CONKY
# A comprehensive conky script, configured for use on
# Ubuntu / Debian Gnome

I am building up a site-to-site OpenVPN tunnel between two locations. I am setting this up in two CentOS 5.4 boxes each containing two NIC's. I can get the tunnel up and running, and I can ping across the tunnel, however, from the client end of the tunnel I can not ping anything behind the server end of the tunnel. In other words, I can't ping anything on the server's LAN. On both servers, eth0 is the WAN side and eth1 is the LAN side.
OpenVPN server:
eth1 - 10.10.202.2/24
OpenVPN client-server:
eth1 - 192.168.204.1/24
I have IP forwarding enabled in the kernel on both machines.
Code:
[root@vpn01 openvpn]# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[Code]...
I'm sure that the answer is right in front of me, but I can't seem to get it cleared up. I can't hit anything on the 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, 10.10.4.0 or 10.10.202.0 networks from the client server.
Were we are we are now getting dinged by the gigabyte were up till now it was just a monthly cost for unlimited use. I guess they are fishing for more profits anyways I need a program that will record/track my monthly usage is their anything available like this for ubuntu?

In order to connect to the machine at work from home I need to connect through a "tunnel server" that controls all the traffic to the machines at work.I am able to connect with ssh to the tunnel server and from the tunnel server ssh my own machine at work. My question is how do I retrieve files form my work machine to the home machine. How do I sync folders between the machines using rsync when the "tunnel server" is in between?

I like AWstats for viewing/visualizing web traffic to my server. However, I am in a situation where I would like to visualize ALL traffic to/from a network, in a way similar to AWstats. That is to say, Free and Visual. The program will have to be linux/http/java based as it will run on a linux server off of a Network Tap.

However, after doing this I can no longer access my UPnP devices. They used to show up in my router but I am assuming either there is an issue with my iptables rules or that some how having my server run the dhcp and dns routing is messing with UPnP.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have set up a Virtual machine on a dedicated server from 1and1. I hoped to use a bridge to give the vm direct access to the internet but 1and1 do mac filtering and so the only option is to use NAT.
I used Virtual Machine Manager on my Ubuntu 10.04 machine at home to install Debain Lenny on the vm on the server using KVM and all went well. I put it on a virtual network 192.168.100.0 and i can access it from the host and i can access the internet from the guest using NAT that libvirt set-up.
I bought another ip address from 1and1 with the hope of forwarding packets to the new ip address 11.22.33.02 to the guest vm.
I have tried all sorts of routing rules using iptables without any success.
my virtual network is on virbr1 the guest ip is 192.168.100.50 my external network device is ip say 11.22.33.01 on eth0 with the secondary ip say 11.22.33.02 on eth0:1
Here are the latest rules i tried:
Quote:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 11.22.33.02 -i eth0 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.100.50
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.100.50 -o eth0 -j SNAT --to-source 11.22.33.02
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth0 -o virbr1 -d 192.168.100.50 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT

I am new to iptables. We have two Squid proxy servers running in "non-transparent mode" (172.16.0.1 and 172.16.0.2). Currently users have to configure the proxy server they want to use by configuring them in their browsers. Recently I saw an example for redirecting web traffic to a single transparent proxy server.
-A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 3128
-A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 3128
Can anyone modify this rule to accommodate my current setup of two proxy servers running in non-transparent mode. i.e Redirect web traffic to the 172.16.0.1-172.16.0.2 ip range.
I'm trying to setup a Centos 5.6 Squid Proxy Server with Content Filtering & Antivirus Scanning Incoming HTTP Traffic from the Internet
I then proceeded to setup an configure the Proxy Server, i was able to test and confirm that Squid and Dansguardian Content Filter is working, however i dont know if Clamav is scanning HTTP traffic before it hits the client/server. Is there a way i can check if the Antivirus scanning is working.. is there some log file or real world test i can i can do to confirm that Clamav is scanning incoming traffic or even blocking potential viruses ??
Anyone who has squid proxy server with Clamav configured and its working can share there settings/setup with me and how they tested it ??
I'm using Postgresql 8.4.2-2. I'm trying to remote into my server securely. I figure I could do so with ssh. Apparently I figured correctly, as per, [URL] and [URL] I setup the ssh tunnel. ssh -L 5432:serverip:5432 Then I setup pgadmin3 to connect as follows:
host: localhost
port: 5432
user: postgres
maintenance db: postgres
And I receive the following error:
An error has occurred: Quote: An error has occurred: Error connecting to the server: server closed the connection unexpectedly This probably means the server terminated abnormally before or while processing the request.
I'm not sure what the problem is. I can connect with Code: psql from the cli after connecting to the terminal via ssh. So I know that I'm using the correct password.
I'm working remotely at the minute, but have several 'incoming' automatic reverse shells connecting to a dedicated server. This dedicated server does not have X, but several of the 'incoming' shell servers do. Basically, take three machines, laptop, server, client. Laptop and client have X, server does not. All three machines have password-less logins to each other (laptop > server, server > client) and can password-lessly establish a shell.
I've tried ssh -X user@server "ssh -X user@client gui-application" and, no suprise, I'm getting 'Cannot open Display" messages. Does anyone know I nice one-liner for this kind of tunnelling?
I'm trying to tunnel and SSH connection through another server.for the tunnel is ran:ssh -L 8112:yy.yy.yy.yy:22 -N user@xx.xx.xx.xxBut when I try to ssh to localhost -p8112 I get an immediate error saying "exited: remote closed the connection

I currently have a gui running on port 8000 on some of my remote servers, unfortunately i do not control the firewall so can not open that outbound port to access it from hereIs there a way with an ssh tunnel to redirect that to another port so i can access it from here?
View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know the best and simplest way to do this? I'd like the share to be mounted over the tunnel on boot with as little scripting as possible and be as secure as possible without exposing more than one port to the outside.

Lots of the information I have been reading is not up to date it seems. Does anyone have any experience with this?

I'm trying to set up a secure web tunnel at home I have an Ubuntu box (desktop), a Mac, and a Windows 7 box. I use all of them for different reasons. I want to be able to route traffic from my browser through my Ubuntu box. I have done this before with proxy servers abroad, but I want to do it using ssh and my box at home so I don't have to pay for a service i.e (Secure Tunnel)etc.
I followed the instructions at http://bit.ly/hAnp6u. However, using my Win7 box, after I set the browser part per the instructions, I get no connection from the browser.
Is it possible to chain together multiple SSH tunnel hops in a single `ssh -L` command on the client side? I have two gateways I need to get through in order to access a remote host. For a normal SSH client connection, it's simple enough chain this all together by simply appending the additional SSH connection commands to the first one:Code: ssh gateway.1 ssh gateway.2 ssh remote.host.
