[Shorewall-users] Getting past "net unreachable" message(s)

My Shorewall installation was working great until yesterday when it started 
logging ''REJECT'' to packets that tried to cross the firewall
to the
internet.

I tried to work past the firewall by entering "shorewall clear" but I
still
can''t get past the gateway / firewall machine.  Does this mean the NIC
is
damaged? When Shorewall is running I can navigate freely through the local 
and DMZ.

I sent some mail to the list about this yesterday - Tom says its issuing a 
''net unreachable'' from the default gateway. But why? What has
changed? Does
this imply that the hardware is damaged?

Im sorry for sending a redundant message. Im hoping to gain some 
understanding as to what has changed on this machine.

So after a shorewall clear, if you try this on the Shorewall machine:

	ping -n 206.124.146.177

what exactly do you see?

I specifically asked you to ping from the Shorewall system. With
Shorewall cleared, I already knwo that you would have no internet access
from the local zone.

If you ping the correct address and still get ''Network is
unreachable''
then you will have conclusively proved that Shorewall has nothing to do
with your problem.

The next thing that I would check would be your routing although you
said that the IP address from which the logged ICMP packets were being
returned was in fact the IP address of your default gateway. Is another
host on that lan segment answering to that IP address?

To check that, ping your default gateway and check its MAC address using
"arp -na" on the Shorewall system. Confirm that what you see in the
ARP
cache really is the MAC address of the gateway''s interface that faces
the Shorewall system.

[Shorewall-users] Getting past "net unreachable" message(s)

(The IP address was entered correctly - transcribed incorrectly)

Ok. So ''arp -na'' from the shorewall system shows some (but not
all) of the
connected machines.

''arp -na'' from a machine in the local zone shows the MAC
address of the
gateway NIC. None of the other MAC addresses match this address.

At what point can I start to think this is a hardware problem?

Thank you for suffering my foolishness.

Do you mean the ''gateway'' that is defined as the default
gateway to the
Shorewall machine or do you mean the MAC of the Shorewall machine''s
local interface? If the former, then something is really wrong with the
network configuration since I assume that the ''gateway''
isn''t on the
same LAN segment as the local zone systems.

Still sounds like a configuration problem that was installed when you
rebooted after the pfail.

[Shorewall-users] Getting past "net unreachable" message(s)

calling "arp -na" from the shorewall system *did not* show the any of
the
NICs installed on that machine. It showed several connected machines.

calling "arp -na" from a machine in the local zone showed several
machines
in the local zone including the shorewall system. The MAC address of the 
shorewall system matches the NIC that is the default gateway.

Im assuming (naively) that ''arp -na'' doesn''t show the
interfaces on the box
calling arp but rather those of interfaces connected to that machine (via 
lan). At least thats what appears to be happening here.

I mean that calling ''arp -na'' from a machine in the local zone
shows several
addresses of connected systems - one of which is the NIC acting as the 
default gateway on the shorewall machine. In no instance does
''arp'' show the
NIC''s in the box from which ''arp'' is called.

Look carefully at the output of "ip addr ls" on the Shorewall box. Is
the IP address of the Gateway system listed there?

(this is copied from the shorewall machine)

Im curious to know why the ''brd'' (on the
''inet'' lines)  for eth0 and eth1
are the same.  Does this mean they have the same netmask? Surely thats not 
ok.

To answer your question - yes. ''eth1'' is the correct address
for the nic
that is the default gateway.

It''s not.

And what does the routing table look like on this box? (ip route ls)

I''d check the config file for that nic..
Why is there a 192. broadcast for a 155. network?
Anybody, is there a vaild reason to have it set like that?
For my own information, I''d like to know, to me that looks
incorrect.

Your networking configuration on the Shorewall box has problems, Yes.

The two external manifestations may be from the same cause or there may
be, as you say, two different problems.

Those manifestations are:

a) Incorrect broadcast address on your external interface.
b) No default route.

Quirk (a) may be causing the creation of the default route to fail;
check your boot log or restart the external interface and look for error
messages.

Since my role here is to support Shorewall and is not to spent my time
fixing people''s broken basic networking configurations on their Linux
boxes, I''ll not be contributing any more to this thread.
