I am having issues with the DREADED port forwarding. *why* is this important? *why* does it become such a chore to change? trying to run xlink kai on karmic. i have access to the routers in the house. the primary (#1) router is a standard issue Linksys, the other router is my DDWRT router which connects wirelessly to #1.
View 3 RepliesI 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

sudo ssh -L 750:192.168.123.103:873 username@192.168.123.103It does exactly what it's supposed to do, but how do i edit / remove this rule?Is there some config file where i can alter the forwarding? How does it get stored?Im using Ubuntu 10.10Server Edition (allthough i recon it would be pretty much the same across all versions
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm not that great with mailservers, and just been thrown a curveball with a MS Exchange environment for which there is apparently no solution... yeah, right. But is there a workaround?
The problem is that the site mail (SMTP) needs to be sent via port 26 instead of the commonly used 25. Port 25 is mapped to a mailfilter, which apparently causes havoc with some of the mail, and the techs that have been on site trying to coax the Exchange server to co-operate have said that the only way would be to get rid of the filter.
The problem is that there are number of apps that are unable to have the outgoing port changed and so keep sending mail out on port 25.
I look after the Unix/Linux side of things at work, and I was wondering if there was an easy way to set up a Ubuntu box to receive mail on port 25 and just forward it to the MS box on port 26? So, in other words (and I hope this makes sense): monitor port 25, and forward whatever comes in on port 25 to the server on port 26. Simple portforwarding, or is it? What steps do I need to take?
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...
I want to set my ip as static and port forward it through a specific port can anyone help me with this im using ubuntu 10 with 64 bit OS

I'll explain this in one sentence: Is it possible to program a port-binding shellcode in which people across the Internet can connect to, without being thwarted by the router blocking their data because the port its bound to doesn't allow port-forwarding

View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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?
my ftp (with SSL) server is behind firewall.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUp to now I've been playing with Ubuntu whilst storing important data elsewhere for about 2 years. Now I'm ready to move to Ubuntu completely but want to address my security.I'm currently using a desktop and server behind a hardware firewall / Internet router. The router has DynDNS and forwards port 80 to the webserver and a port I picked at random to the desktop 22 for SSH with private keys. SSH passwords are disabled.
The first question is, is there a danger of running different security levels on the two machines? I don't care about the server, there is no data on it so I currently forward port 80 and am considering forwarding ports 631 (CUPS) and a port for LDAP. Will this effect my desktop (which has info I don't want to loose).The next question is whether port forwarding / hardware firewall is actually a safeguard against attack.
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.
would it be possible for anyone to give me step-by-step instructions on how to set up port forwarding on my laptop? I've been using Karmic Koala and just upgraded to Lucid Lynx and not really bothered to port-forward before, so not too sure where to start - googling gives me a lot of terms I don't understand.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
I have two nic cards installed in a Lucid LTS server.
eth0 is static using
address 192.168.0.235
gateway 192.168.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
[Code]...
I have my Qwest DSL modem port forwarding port 80 to 192.168.3.235 however this doesn't seem to work if I have both cards running. If I remove the second card (eth1) and reconfigure eth0 to use 192.168.3.235 I can port forward into my webserver.
I have logged into my router and set up port-forwarding on port 22. I can log into the machine fine from a machine on the local network using the machines internal IP but when I try to log on from a remote machine using my router's external IP or my DyDNS host-name I get a message saying "connection refused" or "connection timed out." I have configured port-forwarding on the router and the firewall rules says that port 22 is open but when I nmap my routers external ip it says that only port 23 and 80 are open. I am very new to linux and networking.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've used wake on lan and SSH on the local network for some time now. I also used SSH to mount a filesystem (SSHFS / sftp, same thing, right?) and I could forward X11, loved it. I used both these options for my convenience. So I decided it was time to open up some ports on my router (Linksys WRT320n running dd-wrt) and try to set up a remote connection. This actually worked after some time, so I'm now able to turn on my home computer from the Internet (school in my case) and then log in to it through SSH. I set this up using other ports then the default ports. Something like this (these are not the actual ports I use, just examples):
port 2112 -> port 9 (for wol, wake on lan)
port 2113 -> port 22 (for SSH)
This information might be useful: I set this up using public and private keys. This is necessary for SSHFS to work properly I think and it also makes it more secure. And then I found (and had some presumptions that this was going to happen) that both SSHFS and X11 were not working. I'd rather not open up more ports on the router for security's sake though, so I'm asking for other solutions. And if there really aren't any other solutions then which ports to forward. And if forwarding is really necessarily then how to make the client use port 2114 for SSHFS and 2115 for X11 so I can forward those ports to the default ports.

I'm trying to set up very simple UDP port forwarding, but can't seem to have good results. I read trough netcat and iptables manuals, but can't seem to figure things out. my setup is the following:
I have machine1, listening on UDP port 49000. I have machine_fw, which accepts connections on 59000, and forwards all this to machine1:49000 (and returning traffic too) I have machine2, which will connect to machine_fw:59000, and this way communicate at the end with machine1:49000, as machine_fw is taking care of forwarding is there an easy way to achieve this?
I don't understand the concept of ssh port forwarding and tunneling.I was going to set up a remote desktop (vnc) connection to my grandmother's laptop that we'll give her soon so if something goes wrong i can fix it from here (she lives on the other side of the world). However, i've read using vnc plain over the internet isn't secure, and that i can secure it by running it through an ssh tunnel.That's what i've understood so far. However, from there on i get confused.
I'd have to run both an ssh server AND a vnc server on her laptop? So what i'd have to do is ssh into her computer, and then while logged on on her computer, somehow open a vnc connection back from the remote server to the local computer? Then i'd go back to my local computer and open a port where the vnc connection is waiting? From the concept, it would seem like i should be able to tunnel all the regular network traffic from the local computer to the remote one through ssh?
I am using ubuntu 8.40 as a router wit 2 nic.eth0 is for local and eth1 is for external network.i have a internal webserver in my lan and want to forward some ports to the net and i executed te following commands.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth1 -d 192.168.0.239 --dport 8080 -j DNAT --to 192.168.10.99:8080
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth1 -d 192.168.10.99 --dport 8080 -j ACCEPT
But i cant connect to the port 8080 from the external network.
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

$IPTABLES -A tcp_packets -p TCP -s 0/0 --dport 3306 -j allowed
$IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -p TCP -i $INET_IFACE -d $STATIC_IP --dport 3306 -j DNAT -
