Networking :: Logging Skype Data Usage In Squid / Iptables
Feb 3, 2010
I've set up a transparrent squid box with two nics. Eth1 = Internet eth0= LAN +Dchp my question is, can I log the data usage of a skype call. My proxy server already records all http an https requests but doesn't record some programs like skype. I know that it is not http traffic, but can I tell my system to record data use by an ip address over a nic with the help of iptables for example?

I am working in a office where only one internet connection available. I have configured 5 other client machines to use internet through squid proxy server. Now I want to restrict the total data usage/transfer (upload+download) to say 1 GB during a calender month. How can I achieve this setting.

I connect to the internet at work through an authenticating proxy, and to avoid having to enter the proxy info into every app I use (e.g. firefox, wget, kde, etc) I have set up squid as a local transparent proxy which authenticates and routes all traffic to the work proxy. It has been working fine, but lately I haven't been able to connect to any https sites. I don't think I have changed the configuration, so perhaps it is the result of an upgrade, or something badly configured on my system from the start. I have tried connecting to https sites without squid and iptables and it works fine. My system is Arch linux, and my squid.conf file is: Code:
acl all src all
acl manager proto cache_object
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32
acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8
acl SSL_ports port 443
acl Safe_ports port 80# http
acl Safe_ports port 21# ftp
acl Safe_ports port 443# https
[Code]....

I need to set up an ip table and a transparent squid proxy as followed: I have 3 machine: Machine 1 works as a squid proxy. It has 2 interface eth1 and eth2.
eth1: 192.168.99.2 (Connect to eth1 of machine 2)
eth2: 192.168.98.2 (Connect to eth1 of machine 3)
machine 2 works as a webserver
eth1: 192.168.99.4
machine 3 works as a web client.
eth1: 192.168.98.4
my responsibility is to send all tcp traffic from machine 3 at port 80 to my squid proxy. In order to fulfill the tasks, I have edited the squid.conf as followed: Code: http_access allow localnet http_access allow localhost and in machine 1, I tried 2 ip tables command: Code: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 192.168.99.2:80 iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 80 I don't know if it is right or wrong.

I setup squid with transparent proxy and its working, however, when I reboot the server, the proxy server doesnt work unless I run the following.
Code: # squid server IP
SQUID_SERVER="192.168.1.1"
# Interface connected to Internet
INTERNET="eth0"
# Interface connected to LAN
LAN_IN="eth1"
# Squid port
SQUID_PORT="3128"

I'm having some issues settings up a transparent proxy server, which should allow only regular web browsing (port 80), any other port (including HTTPS (443)) has to be blocked, as well as any other port. Right now, I'm using Debian 6 and Squid3. The server only has one NIC. The topology is like this:
Clients <-> Proxy Server + DHCP Server <-> Internet
With this setup, the network does have internet access and the websites I whitelisted are the only ones accesible via browser, however port block is not working, every port is open, hence why trying to access blacklisted websites through HTTPS is possible. Seems to me Squid3 is doing it's job fine, however IPTABLES for some reason seems to be redirecting all the trafic to port 3128 (Squid3 port). I could be wrong, but I've been unable to do anything related to ports with squid3 (either whitelisting or blacklisting).
For Iptables I used:
Code:
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp -j REDIRECT --dport 80 --to-port 3128
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m tcp -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m tcp -p tcp --dport 3128 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m tcp -p tcp --dport 443 -j DROP
Squid3 config:
Code:
acl manager proto cache_object
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32 ::1
acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 0.0.0.0/32 ::1
acl Safe_ports port 80 # http
acl whitelist dstdomain "/etc/squid3/whitelist"
acl CONNECT method CONNECT
http_access allow manager localhost
http_access deny manager
http_access deny !Safe_ports
http_access deny !whitelist
http_access allow localhost
http_access allow all
http_port 3128 intercept
hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin

is this possible on 2 Linux boxes will act as a INTERNET Firewall + Filtering: 1st PC = CENTOS 5.5 functions as a firewall using iptables with two NICS 1=ETH0 connected to internet with a public ip and 1=ETH1 with ip address of 10.0.0.1 connected to the 2nd PC Centos 5.5 with squid/dansguardian with ip address of 10.0.0.2
2nd PC = Centos 5.5 functions as a squid + dansguardian internet filtering with 2 NICS 1=ETH0 with ip address of 10.0.0.2 connected to the ETH1 of the 1st PC with ip address of 10.0.0.1 and 2nd ETH1=connected to LAN (172.16.1.0/24)
does this make sense? this might be confusing but I just want to try this, to protect incoming ssh from our previous Sys admins who intended to enter the LAN 172.16.1.0/24 network. And also to confuse them that they have to pass through 10.0.0.1 - 2.

I'm using tcpdump and tcptrace to track all incoming and outgoing data packets through my network interfaces. But I fail to monitor the voip data for skype that way, although it works well with http port 80, for example.
I want to track the ip address of the data packets for skype, i.e. know the ip address of the other one speaking at the other end of skype. How can I achieve this?
I've checked the port setting in my skype and I'm sure I'm listening on the right port. But nothing is showing up while I'm in connection with skype.

the data usage information from the carrier is often several hours old and is accessed in some arcane ways (logging into their website, sending a specific SMS message at best). Here's my idea: single-session data usage is perfectly reported by ifconfig ppp0. The problem is, how tokeep track of previous sessions accumulate the numbers rollover to zero at specified date To be able to do this across computers means that one needs to store it on the modem/SIM card itself. (As a specially crafted SMS message, or a contact).

Whether I use ufw or firestarter to populate my iptables, my firewall logs get written to 3 different log files:/var/log/messages/var/log/kern.log/var/log/syslogI want to keep the logging turned on, but I'd rather it not log to syslog, as it's obscuring other events in syslog that I'd like to see. I'm using rsyslog on Ubuntu. I looked around online and found one person suggesting I add this to the top of rsyslog.conf:kern.* -/var/log/kern.logkern.* ~I did that and restarted rsyslog, but it's still logging to the same 3 files.

I'm having a lot of problems getting NIS set up with our firewall. I've looked online and no one seems to have any answers. When the firewall is off, NIS works. When it's on, it doesn't.I would like to know which ports NIS needs by logging connection attempts on the server, since I would swear the right ports seem open already. Right now I'm using this to generate the log entries:
iptables -I INPUT -m state --state NEW -j LOG --log-prefix "New Connection: "
iptables -I OUTPUT -m state --state NEW -j LOG --log-prefix "New Connection: "
However, I think it must only work for successful connections, because I'm not seeing any new entries when I try running the NIS client on another machine (ypbind).

Brief overview of my current setup:
Code:
The ip_blacklist chain is used to immediately drop any traffic from specified address ranges, while the tcp_, udp_, and icmp_packets chains contain rules for further processing of those protocols. The last rule in each of the latter three chains drops all packets that didn't match any rules above it; so tcp, udp, and icmp packets should NOT get caught by the default INPUT policy (DROP). The goal of the last rule on the INPUT chain is to then log any packets that are picked up by the default policy. However, it's not working.
I can tell that there are packets being picked off by the default policy because the counters are being incremented, but nothing is logged by that last rule. My conclusion is that it's only looking for tcp, udp, and icmp packets and ignoring everything else.
How to get iptables to log all the other protocols (or whatever is being caught by the default policy)?

I am wondering if it's possible to log the number of bytes a connection transfered when the connection is complete with iptables. I know I've seen this sort of information in Cisco FWSM logs, where the "Teardown" entry of the logs has the bytes transferred for that connection. Is it possible to have something similar to that with iptables? Where the initial connection attempt is logged (i.e. NEW, which I have logging fine) AND an entry for that connection that includes the bytes transferred?

I'm trying to use these cookie cutter rules that I found. But every time I use them, after a few seconds my wifi connection goes dead. The exception was the first time I used then. Which lasted me a couple of minutes.
By dead I mean I can no longer open a webpage or ping google.
iptables -N LOGGING
iptables -A INPUT -j LOGGING
iptables -A OUTPUT -j LOGGING
iptables -A LOGGING -m limit --limit 2/min -j LOG --log-prefix "IPTables-Dropped: " --log-level 4
iptables -A LOGGING -j DROP

i've got a software that uses a specific tcp port e.g 11111. i want to redirect all the traffic from 11111 to squid port 3128. i'm using the following commands to redirecting:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp -i eth0 --dport 11111 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.1:3128
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m tcp -i eth0 --dport 11111 -j ACCEPT
my ubuntu server has two interfaces. eth0 is for local network (dhcp assigns ips) and eth1 is for internet. my ubuntu server acts as a gateway and as an authentication server for users.
at squid also i have the following configuration regarding my port:
acl myport port 11111 http_access allow CONNECT myport. my squid installation is not transparent as users need to authenticate in order to access the web.
my application is a windows application and of course is not working. i examined the packets with wireshark and i noticed that when the program tries to access the internet, squid replies with err_invalid_request (the packet contains that data). the program is trying to send some plain text via port 11111 and as far as i can image, somehow squid declines the data. i cant get rid off squid as i want to pass the traffic from squid. what is the problem?

We host a web server in which we are hoping to implement some form of traffic redirection based on source IP address, and I am wondering whether the squid proxy built on iptables would be capable of managing this task? Essentially we are trying to redirect traffic from specific set of source IP ranges to a "Your IP has been restricted" type of page at a different IP/FQDN.

I'm deploying new ubuntu server which should act as a router. I've already set up the NAT for local network, and also did some shaping for different groups of users, but now I'm facing new problem.I need to make a scheduled URL filter. I know it's not a problem with cron and simple script, but maybe there is existing way to do that? And also, I need to make statistics on web-traffic. I need to have list of URLs visited by users (source ip, destination url). Is it possible with iptables? or with any other software but without using proxy servers.
