-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I''m running Shorewall 4.4.0/Debian Lenny and I''m trying to setup OpenVPN with a mild degree of success so far. My ultimate end goal is to basically have an extension of my home lan to my laptop as well as my wife''s when we are away from home, and have all of my normal network resources available as if I were sitting at home

Hello, I have the need to connect 2 remote site with vpn, the windows pc of the 2 site it can share the HD and printer. This is my configuration : LOCAL NETWORK A : ip from 192.168.10.2 to 192.168.10.99 | | | | eth0: 192.168.10.1 FIREWALL A : ( with debian ; openvpn ver. 2.0.beta15 ; shorewall ver 2.0.11 ) eth1 : xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ( pubblic ip address ) | | | | INTERNET | | | eth1 :

Good day, I have gone through a couple of the HOWTO''s on how to get this to work, but I am still sitting with a very strange (for me) issue. If two clients connect via OpenVPN (bridged), they can access each other without any problems, but neither of them can access the server, nor any system behind it. I am fairly sure it is a Shorewall issue, but I am very new to Shorewall, having

Hi all! I think I remember there have discussion on this topic on this mailinglist a while ago. But the archives don''t find anything. Did anyone here set up a configuration with shorewall and heartbeat or vrrpd or ucarp? What would you prefer? Any experiences with failover times, setup problems etc? Good documentation on this? Thanks, Christian -- you don''t need eyes to see

Ok. I''m knocking down one problem at a time. I''ve managed to figure out how to bridge my tap0 and my eth1 with br0. This is good stuff. But if I have shorewall running, I can''t ping the local network at all. If I have shorewall not running, I can ping the local network. Here is my setup. Firewall/NAT box: eth0 - DHCP from cable provider eth1 -

I have previously set up an openvpn LAN to LAN bridging VPN so I know a little about what has to happen. The gateways on either ends were running older version of shorewall that did not support openvpn directly so I just basically opened ports for it and used bridging with tap interfaces. I am no longer using that vpn link to the other house but now that i''ve upgraded I would like

Hello list, Please don''t shoot me. I know I''m doing something with bonding that bonding wasn''t made for. I just want to give it a try. I want a simple mechanism to have a failover on a 24Mbit line to a 2Mbit line in case the 24Mbit line goes down. Between A and B there are two lines: a 24Mbit and a 2Mbit. I use two OpenVPN tunnels with tap devices: +-- tap0 (A)---

Here is the scenario: I have one server with kernel 2.4.24 with a bridge br0 made of 2 interfaces, eth0 and tap0 (the last is an OpenVPN tunnel), and one remote computer connetting through tap0. If I assign a static IP to the remote computer, the bridge works perfecly (so I think the problem is not OpenVPN-related). If I start a DHCPd on the server and I configure the remote client to get the

Hello all, I subscribed newly to this list, since I got an bridging problem after an upgrade from Debian etch to Debian lenny (before everything worked fine). The situation is as follows: # brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br0 8000.000347729835 no eth0 tap0 tap0

Hi, I''ve noticed that if I have NIS enabled then shorewall will fail to start correctly as there is a brief time during startup (and restart) that the network is wholly disconnected causing NIS to object during RPC. The problem appears to be that during initialization and building of the chains the default is to allow existing connections and internal traffic to/from loopback,

I''m currently building a firewall for a network with 2 ISP links. Unfortunately, one of the ISP''s doesn''t support BGP yet, otherwise I would be doing load balancing at the router, instead of the firewall. I''ve been trying to find information on how to get WonderShaper working, but everything I''ve found talks about setting it up for a firewall with one

Hi, all! Can I enable multicasting via shorewall? I have router with Gentoo Linux (one interface to ISP, one with alises - to local network). Shorewall work perfect! But now I need setup Quagga (zebra) for dynamic routing between one more router via another provider. All routers daemons (zebra, ripd, ospf) used multicasting. In my configuration already enabled allowBcast and etc.

Hi all. I would need to use a single physical interface on a Linux box to manage two different IP addresses (belonging to two separate logical subnets) with two different MAC address. (I need to emulate te presence of two separate physical interfaceses for a PC on the same LAN, at layer 2 and layer 3). Is it possible to use the linux ethernet bridging code and two tap interfaces for this

Hi Folks, Can i account proxyarped pc´s ?? Like know how much web traffic passthru a specific person ip using shorewall ? So i can know how much bandwidth that specific IP EAT ?

Hi, I am running OpenVPN where i have one central hub VPN server, and multiple spoke VPN clients. I can ping from each client to the server and each client to computers on the subnet which the server resides (192.168.2.0/24) so it works ok there. I cannot however, ping from one client to another client. I guess the packet path would go: clienta -> vpn -> shorewall/router -> vpn ->

I have setup a bridged connection using the guide on openvpn.sourceforge.net. The two linux gateways have established a vpn connection over the internet but i can''t seem to get anything through it. I''m using shorewall, but pretty much all the policies are open right now. One thing that i see i am doing different is that i have two different ip setups on the two networks.

Dear All, I try to upgrade, my old shorewall from 4.4.13-3 to 4.5.2.3-1 on CentOS, after upgrade i can''t start shorewall with this message: "/Shorewall: Address Ranges require the Multiple Match capability in your kernel and iptables/" I try to search on the net about this, but no still no light. Somebody can help me? Great appreciate for any help. Regards,

Hello guys, I past the last days trying to configure my shorewall 4.06 firewall to allow openvpn bridging connection.
