Hi folks, I know this isn''t a shorewall question, but i''m hoping someone can point me to the right place to look for answers on this (since, as Tom suggests, search engines are useless for some things): Here is my firewall setup: ADSL1 ADSL2 dialup \ | / firewall | DMZ It''s a fairly simple setup. ADSL1 has a static IP, ADSL2 is

Hello I am looking for a way to have snort to dynamically update my shorewall config. I have seen software out there but I would like to see if anyone had tried this first. Aslo I would like to know if there is a way clear the Netfilter tables when I do a shorewall restart. The reason being is that when I make a change to my firewall setting I want all connections to have to re-establish

I believe that 2.4.0 is about ready to be sent out the door. I''ve made a couple of small changes since RC2 but I don''t believe that they warrant another RC. There remains the issue of what to do about support for Shorewall 2.0 given that 2.2 has only been available since March. It would be my recommendation to make 2.4 the new "stable" release but continue to

So, now I see why I was doing the fw 2 fw rule. It was for my YP/NIS usage. Does anyone know how I get that to work?

hi all, i have a classic net topology with two local zone, a firewall/router with dsl connection loc1 (192.168.11.0/24) ----- fw ----- net loc2 (192.168.12.0/24) now on the local zone 1 (on a WinXP machine) i have installed OpenVPN 2.x to make a test connection with a company. OpenVPN is configured as client to use tun on udp port 10000 with ip 10.0.0.2, on the other

Hi folks, I''m conducting a straw poll for your opinions on whether we should send CVS commit logs (probably with diffs) to the shorewall-devel list, or to another (new) list? I can see advantages to both ways: separate lists mean that people who aren''t contributing code don''t get flooded with code noise, but a single list will help keep everyone involved in the

Hi folks, Last night and this morning i''ve hacked up a quick web site for coordinating our development work based on Drupal (http://drupal.org). You can find it at: http://shorewall.dyndns.org I''ve put a few ideas in there - feel free to use the comments or sign up for an account and create your own pages (particularly in the two books about development and web site work).

Hi folks, Has anyone out there done port forwarding or DNAT for UDP packets that are normally sent to the broadcast address (255.255.255.255)? I have to support a nasty database application called FileMaker Pro (those of you who know it are probably groaning about now), which uses broadcasts to locate the database server. Theoretically, i can get around this requirement by using LDAP lookups

Thank you very

hello I''m using the 2.6 series 5 vservers on eth1 running on debian unstable and I wanted two of them to be used as "proxies". One of the proxies has 3 interfaces (well 4 if you count the ath0 interface whose traffic I''d like to pass through the "vproxy"); one facing the hosts''/out interface, one facing the "dmz" where two vservers

Been trying to track down an issue where when I issue a restart on shorewall it stalls for maybe 5 minutes. I have tracked it down to the removing of the rules portion but have not been able to get any closer yet. Some place after "strip_file rules" and echo "Deleting user chains..." It seems to fix itself after a reboot of the system for an unknown time then it resurfaces

I was wondering if i could stick a certain ip in the blocklist, but at the same time have an allow rule for http in the rules section. In other words i would like to block pretty much all access from a certain internet address except for http from the internal network. So does the rules file get parsed before the blacklist in the firewall to make this possible?
