Hi, I''ve setup quagga on a shorewall firewall server. The only purpose for this is to use BGP to connect to a "peering platform" supplied by our data centre supplier. There are some very large ISP''s (and other various providers including google) on this peering platform and connecting to it will speed up access to/from our services and hosted servers. The physical

I want to use fprobe-ulog (http://fprobe.sourceforge.net/) to generate NetFlow information about traffic going through my router. The question is how to get the logging rules added to the appropriate chains (I''m assuming eth2_in and eth2_out in my case)? I''m using the perl version of shorewall 4.0.6. -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701

Dear all: Im using shorewall 2.0.3a (debian) w/ ULOG. shorewall starts ok, and the firewall is running, but nothing is printed on the logs. I try, for example, to do a connection to a port that is opened on the server but closed by the FW and I get a connection refused. If I stop the firewall, this port is accesible from the outside. I think I''ve followed all the steps on

Hi Tom and list, Still trying to set up Shorewall logging. I understand that Shorewall require syslog to get logging working, however I have metalog. Is this possible to use metalog as logging facility for Shorewall? I was reading http://www.shorewall.net/shorewall_logging.html and it describes other method ( ULOG ). I understand that I have to compile ULOG support in the kernel... where do I

hi, if i would like to use ulog (in order to split netfilter messages from other kernel messages), than i have to set all loglevel to ULOG? and then is there any way to define diferent loglevel for eg. maclist? thanks in advance. yours. ps. it''s a bit confusing that all loglevel parameter name is LOG_LEVEL except BLACKLIST_LOGLEVEL:-( -- Levente

Dear newfound friends, please be patient. For me reading and writing in English is more painful than dissecting IP traces :) I have tried reading through the FAQ but could not quite understand: I would like the logs to be terser. I think I can live without MAC, LEN, TOS, PREC, TTL, ID fields normally (maybe need them only in special situations). Could not understand if/how I can achieve this.

Hi, I have 2 Debian testing boxes running a very similar setup (both running the latest aptosid kernel); on one of them, since the iptables/libxtables10 packages have been upgraded from 1.4.19.1-1 to 1.4.20-2, shorewall-init can''t start shorewall anymore and for this reason ifupdown also fails triggering firewall up. Shorewall can be successfully started later on, and ifupdown starts

I found the 3Com one, but I'm looking for the intel one. The PXE PDK doesn't have it anymore, and the intel site points me to the proboot.exe archive, which has no *.dos files in it. Does anyone know of other generic drivers for dos that work with memdisk's keeppxe option?

I want to use lastest version of Shorewall in my fresh debian squeeze instalation, so I follow http://www.shorewall.net/Install.htm#Debian but, modify preferences file was not enough for me, I have to modify/add some other files in /etc/apt/ directory: 1.) include testing repo to source.list 2.) add APT::Default-Release "stable"; to apt.conf and pinning all other packages to stable

Hello, I installed my linux server for 3 months now. It does almost everything (dns, web & mail server, firewall ...). I just encounterd two problems with the firewall: behind this server there are 2 computers: i got emule on one and msn on the other. The problem is that I can''t configure well the firewall fore these 2 rules. I''ve added DNAT rules but it

Hi. I have a Server''s network with some servers in it, all with 192.168.1.0/25 ips. There is also a router in that network with ip 192.168.1.1. This router also connected to a client''s network 10.10.0.0/16 with ip 10.10.100.1. All services on each server are given their virtual address from one of two virtual networks 192.168.1.128/28 and 192.168.1.144/28. 192.168.1.128/28 is

OK.

Hi, I''ve just recently switched off my (lame) hardware firewall onto an old box running linux 2.4.18, iptables 1.2.6 and shorewall 1.2.9. I''m kinda new to linux firewalling myself but so far Shorewall has taken much work from me. While reading myself into iptables I saw that just recently something called ULOG (userspace logging) has been implemented in newer kernels and

I think you can change the existing firewall logging code for log_rule_limit (where you have one case for for LOGRULENUMBERS and another almost identical case without) down to this slightly shorter version with no duplication (excerpt): if [ -n "$LOGRULENUMBERS" ]; then eval rulenum=\$${chain}_logrules [ -z "$rulenum" ] && rulenum=1 fi case

I have 4 Linux servers all running samba. Everything has been working fine until yesterday. With no changes to the network or to the servers samba has quit working right. The problems all relate to samba not being able to look up names against the master browser. When I try to mount using a windows pc name I get this error... [root@fileserver pdk]# mount -t smbfs -o username=pdk,passowrd=XXXXX

Hi all, Im new to shorewell, can anyone guide me whether I can use shorewell for my work. I have a requirement in our work: Each system shall have two Ethernet card interfaces(system means hardware devices, servers, clients in other words any device or host used in the project). The IP address of each interface will be of different networks, subnets and gateways completely. Bcoz if one of

Hello, I have 2 ISP uplinks (zones: inet1 and inet2), each with a fixed IP on the outside and a routed subnet (/25 and /26) on the inside. So, behind the firewall i have 2 networksegments (lan1 and lan2) with public IP-addresses. The segments are completely isolated from eachother: hosts in zone "lan1" connect only to "inet1" and hosts in zone "lan2" only connect

Hello, I tried Shorewall for the first time today. I am currently using an up-to-date installation of Debian Sid, which has shorewall 4.2.10, shorewall-shell 4.2.10 and shorewall-perl 4.2.10.1. I noticed that even though I had the following /etc/shorewall/policy file, iptables would still show LOG rules at the end of the INPUT and OUTPUT chains instead of ULOG rules. (Other logging related rules

I have tried using iptraf for my NAT firewall to analyse the IP traffic. Basically I am faced with this difficulty of related the source IP to the outgoing interface to the internet, so I am wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a different ways to do it, or a suggestion for a better tool.
