Hello all! I'm in the process of setting up a dedicated firewall for my home network. It only runs four services: smtp, snmp, ssh and fwlogwatch.
I've run into a problem configuring snmpd to only use a fixed local IP. >From the man-page it is enough to call snmpd with the following parameters: snmpd -s -l /dev/null -p [EMAIL PROTECTED] but snmpd still listens on port 199/tcp (smux) on my internet IP. [portscan from external host] Starting nmap V. 2.54BETA22 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) Interesting ports on x (x.x.x.x): (The 3 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed) Port State Service 199/tcp open smux I have read the man page and did a lenghthy search with google but didn't find a solution on how to bind 199/tcp to my local IP. Please give me a hint or two on how to fix this, or where to look for more information. Ofcourse i have a packetfilter installed but i don't want *any* open ports on this firewall.
