Ubuntu Networking :: Enable Port Forwarding So Can Use Computer As A FTP Server?

Oct 3, 2010

I'm trying to enable port forwarding so I can use my computer as an FTP server to some friends. Here's my setup:

CLEAR wireless modem <--> LAN port 4 on router (not WAN) and LAN port 1 on router <---> eth0 in Ubuntu 9.10

The modem acts as a DHCP server which successfully assigns an IP address to my desktop system. I can also go onto the internet just fine on my desktop, and any other computer that connects to the router.

I have enabled port forwarding on the modem (not the router because it's being used as a switch, and not using its WAN port) to forward ports 21 and 80 to my desktop. What I don't understand, though, is that when I try to FTP to the modem's WAN IP address, the connection is refused. However, when I use websites such as:

www.canyouseeme.org
www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/

They say ports 21 and 80 are open (and not other random ports like 22 or 23 which I tried to see if the site simply said everything was open) but I cannot access my site from a web browser.

I was wondering what it was that's stopping computers from the Internet from communicating with my computer? The modem? The router? Configs?

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 Networking :: SSH Port Forwarding For Web Server

Feb 20, 2010

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.

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 :: Forwarding A Port Behind A Local DNS Server?

Jul 9, 2010

Here's my (admittedly complex) situation:

I set up a dynamic DNS address for my home network. Let's call it [URL]. Then I set up one of my machines with a bind9 DNS server and pointed my router's DNS setting to it. I did this so that I could resolve awesome.server.com from machines inside my network and have them correctly find my server. Then I set up a second machine to serve web pages using [URL]. I did this by forwarding port 9200 on my router to port 80 on that machine. This works, but of course, it only works from outside my network.

What is the best way to get [URL] to work from inside my network?

I've tried setting up the iptables on my server to forward that port, but it just times out. I used these rules that I found by searching the internet:

Code:
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 9200 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.300:80
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 9200 -i eth1 -j ACCEPT

However, those rules might be failing because they are intended to forward ports requested from outside the network. I must admit, this iptables stuff is way, way over my head. Is there a different method that I must use to make it work inside my network? Or is there a better way besides iptables?

Ubuntu Networking :: SSH Server And Router Port Forwarding

Aug 29, 2010

I'm trying to get my SSH server I set up on my home box working from behind a router. A 2wire 2700HG-B gateway, in fact. Now, I know my server is working fine, because I can get into it via loopback, anywhere inside the LAN from another machine, OR if I go into the router's config and enable DMZ for the machine. However, I don't like having DMZ on all the time because of the kludge-ness of it, and the security issue of the complete absence of a hardware firewall.If I try to port forward and access it from outside the LAN using the external IP (or my DynDNS, because it's dynamic), it just times out. I have a nonstandard port (45) for the listen port of the server, to keep away hack attempts if I were using the standard 22. I used this to see if the port was open, and it said it was. But, I tried the trick of telnetting the IP with that port, and it also timed out, instead of printing stuff about OpenSSH.

Attached is a screenie of my router's firewall page, so you all can look at it and see if I'm an idiot and doing it wrong. You might notice uTorrent there, it's because this machine is a dual-boot with 7, and the router doesn't differentiate the OS's. Also the SSH @ 46 port is for the Windows side, with freeSSHd. I changed the port on that one so the client I have can distinguish them, so it can run a reachability test.

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?

We have on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS installed on one m/c which is connected to office network using pptp vpn.Now i want to enable ip-forwarding on this m/c so that i can connect my RH9 m/c through this. For enabling ip forwarding i did the basic thing "echo "1">/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" And added route on the RH m/c as route add -net 10.254.254.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.10 dev eth0" (IP of Ubuntu m/c is "192.168.1.10 and RH m/c is 192.168.1.15) But some how ip-forwarding is not working properly.

I have the following setup and Im trying to forward all incoming connection on port 1194 on eth2 which is the external network to ip 192.168.10.100, but seems its not working.

Current config:

# Generated by iptables-save v1.3.8 on Sun Nov 16 00:00:54 2008
*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [26751696:2175544875]

[code]....

plus im adding the prerouting:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -p tcp --dport 1194 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.10.100

This configuration doesnt work. I also I have tried:

iptables -D PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp -d XX.XX.XX.XX --dport 1194 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j DNAT --to 192.168.10.100:1194

and the same its not working. Connecting thru telnet to the domain: telnet mydomain.org 1194 doesnt work, but within the server, running telnet 192.168.10.100 1194 it works.

Ubuntu Networking :: Router Port Forwarding For Ssh

Aug 22, 2010

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.

Ubuntu Networking :: SSH Port Forwarding With X11 And SSHFS?

Nov 2, 2010

I'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.

Ubuntu Networking :: Simple UDP Port Forwarding?

Jan 30, 2011

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?

Ubuntu Networking :: SSH Tunnel / Port Forwarding

Jul 28, 2011

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?
