I am looking for a layer 7 firewall. I have to redirect rtmp requests for different hostnames coming at a gateway to internal servers at LAN at their respective hostnames.
Code:
IPTABLES some stuff -p rtmp -hostname to server 1
like that.
Or if not IPTABLES then some other feasible solution.
im trying to send pages of 4096 bytes from kernel layer of server to kernel layer of client over a network. previously i tried the foll. code , for data less than a 100 bytes it worked fine , but for something larger than that the computer hangs......(even the dmesg's wont say why) i also wanted to know how we could use the 'sendpage' function to solve this problem.
Code:

char buf[1024];

I will be relocating to a permanent residence sometime in the next year or two. I've recently begun thinking about the best way to implement a home-based network. It occurred to me that the most elegant solution might be the use of VM technology to eliminate as much hardware and wiring as possible.My thinking is this: Install a multi-core system and configure it to run several VMs, one each for a firewall, a caching proxy server, a mail server, a web server. Additionally, I would like to run 2-4 VMs as remote (RDP)workstations, using diskless workstations to boot the VMs over powerline ethernet.The latest powerline technology (available later this year) will allow multiple devices on a residential circuit operating at near gigabit speed, just like legacy wired networks.
In theory, the above would allow me to consolidate everything but the disklessworkstations on a single server and eliminate all wired (and wireless) connections except the broadband connection to the Internet and the cabling to the nearest power outlets. It appears technically possible, but I'm not sure about the various virtual connections among VMs. In theory, each VM should be able to communicate with the other as if it was on the same network via the server data bus, but what about setting up firewall zones? Any internal I/O bandwidth bottlenecks? Any other potential "gotchas", caveats, issues? (Other than the obvious requirement of having enough CPU and RAM).Any thoughts or observations welcome, especially if they are from real world experience in a VM environment. BTW--in case you're wondering why I'm posting here, it's because I run Debian on all my workstations/servers (running VirtualBox as a VM for Windows XP on one workstation).
I have a small home-office network. On that network I have two linux computers, one is a client the other a server.
On the server I have NFS Server setup and mount some NFS exports on the client computer.
On the server I have the firewall on and here it becomes a little tricky.
Since both the server and the client connect to the router the interface (eth1) is theoretically both an internal & external zone.
The router is commercial grade and therefore has a good firewall on it which is also setup. Therefore the firewall on the server is really more of a backup than a necessity. But that's fine, and by having the server's firewall on 'fail2ban' is able to work which I like to have working so I don't want to just turn off the server firewall even though I have good security from the router.
However, when I turn on the server's firewall, the client computer cannot see the NFS server when scanning for server -- done by: clicking on "Choose" next to "NFS Server Hostname" when adding an NFS share in the NFS Client in YaST. Clearly something is being blocked even though I have both "NFS Client" and "NFS Server Service" allowed in the server firewall. The Firewall config. files for these are below.
The Firewall configuration is pretty much "out of the box". That is I have the services I need opened up for the external zone, the other zones are left at their default which means the internal zone, although not used (i.e.: attached to any interface), is completely open.
The perfect solution I guess would be to setup my client computer to connect through a different NIC (perhaps eth0), make that the "Internal Zone" and therefore allow all traffic through to it while still blocking the server from the external zone. However, I cannot make that physical change to my network for now so I am looking for an in between (non-perfect) solution.
In this case I am guessing that means opening up extra NFS ports to the external zone so I have full NFS functionality. I don't mind this because like I said, the router firewall is the main line of defense anyway.
So, given all of the above could someone tell me what I would need to additionally open up in the server firewall to make the NFS server detection work on the client while the firewall was on. Or, if you have a cleverer/better solution without me changing my physical network that would be great.
Hopefully I have written this in enough detail and clearly enough so that all the parameters are clear but if not, feel free to ask me what you like and I'll try to make it clear.

## Description: Firewall Configuration for NFS kernel server.

# Only the variables TCP, UDP, RPC, IP and BROADCAST are allowed.
# More may be supported in the future.

i even turn off all firewall rules on both server i can able to ssh from my home or any other pc to remote pc so i don't think there is any problem in target pc
I suspect this is an initial configuration bug. All firewall logs seem to be going to all
three files. That causes a lot of clutter in the log files, and makes it difficult to see whether there are any serious problems being logged.
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.
I'm trying to build firewall on Debian with 'Firewall Builder'. But it won't let me compile and run unless one interface is set as management. There are two interfaces on my computer: 'eth0' and 'lo'
I don't want to be able to configure firewall remotely, so could I use 'lo' as 'management interface'?
I've been setting up NIS for the first time. When I have the firewall on, the NIS client can't find the NIS server. When the firewall is off, it can. These are both on the same computer (the server).I have both the NIS client and server opened in the firewall -- all the setup has been done through yast so far.
Is there something else that needs to be done that I missing? Or if not, perhaps it just a minor setup bug in the scripts in which case could someone tell me what ports I would additionally need to open manually in the firewall to make it work that wouldn't already be opened?
On a different note, in a recent discussion on another thread someone told me that openSUSE was going to be unsupported from around May this year -- has anyone heard of this or should I just ignore it? I thought with 40k users registered on the website Novell would find something better to do with all of us rather that just drop us so I am a little skeptical.
After metering the power being used daily in my computer room, I decided that I needed to get somewhat greener. So I am updating all my equipment and getting rid of the old towers and power hungry equipment. So far so good, except for the box running Smoothwall.
It is an old IBM 300GL from the '90s that is apparently never going to die. But it is noisy and not exactly low powered and has to be on all the time. The only machines that I have presently that can be used as a replacement are full blown AMD 3000 and 6000's, and I hate to waste one of those just to be a firewall. I can find some mini cube systems that are very low powered - some even run on just a wall cube - but can't find one with two ethernet ports, and of course there is no plugin buss on a tiny box.
I got 2 servers, each on different locations (server 1 and server 2). I want all traffic on server1 included web browsing, applications etc., be always going through server2, like a gateway. I want the traffic to be encrypted (maybe use VPN?) So if I browse, or any logs pick up ip adresses from applications used by server1, I want it to display the IP address from server2 (Might be the wrong way to say it).
I always wants server2 to act as an firewall and logserver that logs all the traffic. I was thinking about using Snort for IPS/IDS solutions and OpenVPN for the traffic, but what can I use as a firewall? Most firewalls I find on google has its own OS/Distribution. Maybe Squid for logs? But squid does not support much protocols. Distribution on both servers are updated Debian/Ubuntu based.
I'm trying to configure a messaging system based on php script with iptables, rsyslog and mysql. In the firewall server Sendmail is istalled so i'd like to use it to receive messages in the main mail server, located in DMZ. In the Lan i've configured another linux server than works perfectly, sending mail messages to the server located in DMZ. After looking for some solution I've tried to configure sendmail to relay mail to the server but the only thing I reached is the following message: "Deferred: Connection refused by mail.server.com" message rest on queue and flushing it reply

View 7 Replies View RelatedI wanted to set up a secure FTP server with proftpd so I can put some large files on the web for my pops. Here is my problem, I use a clearwire modem that won't allow you to change any of the settings but appears to have some pre-set firewalling capabilities. I also have a linksys wireless router connected to the modem. That firewall has all the port forwarding settings ready to go, and there hasn't been an issue with anything else, so here it goes.
I have a properly configured secure FTP setup with proftpd and the client app I'm using is Filezilla. I know it is configured right because I was able to use the FTP server via my LAN. Maybe my logic is wrong but, I was connecting to the FTP server at it's IP on the LAN of 192.168.1.5:21. If I wanted my pops to connect from out of state I would give him the ip the internet sees when I surf the web, right? Looks something like this 68.44.22.113. I should tell him to configure Filezilla to connect to 68.44.22.113:21. If my logic is wrong, please let me know, because when I try to do this I get an error that says connection refused by host.

now mind you, my linux server is running from port forwarding from my router, which is connected to the main computer, and i have ssh and squid running as well. not sure if those two have any affect on the service. i think this is a problem with the firewall, because i have read somewhere that multiple ports need to be open for a passive ftp to work.

I wanted to implement a server for a small network, but am a bit in-experienced. The server that I want to use should be able to do load-balancing (two connections) and also act as firewall/proxy. And also it should be able to do some bandwidth management. The network that its going to serve has two parts. One part of the network should be served, say during day time,and the other during night time. The one that is going to be served at night-time should not have access to internet during day-time, but should have access to, say local mirror-server. I am a bit confused what software/hardware to use. I am planing to use EndianFirewall, but since I don't have experience, don't know if it can do all that I need (?).

here's my delema, there is a server on a network protected by a overly restrictive firewall. I can't connect to the server.
I was thinking, does a program exist where the server would connect to another server outside the firewall, then wait for commands? This way there is no port forwarding required. The only program I know that does this is LogMeIn. If you check the logs it does use SSH, and thats even when I blocked the port. Since LogMeIn isn't what I was looking for (Windows Only, full screen capture instead of command line), does an alternative exist?
I am trying to consolidate my servers for a small office (less than 50 computers) and need file sharing/crm or erp database/backup/ftp/firewall/vpn etc). I was going to use endian but that seems to want to run on it's own machine. I was going to run endian in Sun's virtualbox. While researching I have found both guarddog and Lutelwall should work within Ubuntu (no virtual machine needed).
1. Is there a reason to use Endian over Lutelwall or Guarddog?
2. Is there any reason NOT to run a firewall within a VM on the server?
3. Should I just scrap the whole idea and run a router flashed with dd-wrt or tomato
post the "perfect" tutorial for setting up a router and firewall for Ubuntu 10.10 Server 64-bit? I'm kind of a n00b when it comes to Linux, so I get really confused with some things, I have seen things on the ubuntu wiki about this... but it really confuses me =
I'm trying to setup my ubuntu sys as a router and firewall... Internet -> Ubuntu (Router) -> Switch (no DHCP on it) -> Computers I've already setup bind and dhcp3 and got those working perfectly... I've also setup Squid3 and Dansguardian for content filtering (blocking ads and such) and got them working too... I want to set it all up to be transparent, and allow the system itself to function as a powerful firewall router, giving absolutely NO issues to client computers connected, and no speed reduction at all.... I want to setup the firewall to allow all outgoing connections, but block everything incoming (stealth the network)... Forcing all http/s traffic to pass through dansguardian, then to squid...
But am very confused on how to pull this off... The system is running Ubuntu 10.10 Server 64-bit, with 4 GB of RAM, 320 GB SSD, and two 1Gb NIC cards... Sorry if I'm not very clear, I do speak english perfectly, but just kinda new to the "Linux world", I was using SONICWALL but that's getting a little too costly to my network and wanna do a free alternative... Something completely CUSTOM, not using some network security distro.
I'm getting my first web server configured, and as per a tutorial I found, I used shorewall. However, it blocks all internet access (even from apt) to my server! Does anyone know a decent firewall program or a good guide on configuring shorewall?
