Hello
folks.
I am having some
degree of trouble getting port forwarding to work seamlessly. The firewall
is a potato box running ipchains and the default ipmasq scripts.
I can manually
run:
ipmasqadm portfw -a
-P tcp -L (current IP address of ppp0) 80 -R 192.168.1.50 80
without any problem,
but I have been trying to get it to initialise from the ip-up
scripts.
Like
this
#!/bin/sh
# This script is
/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/fw
ipmasqadm portfw
-f
ipmasqadm -p tcp -L
$4 80 -R 192.168.1.50 80
and so on for other
ports and protocols. The $4 should equate to the local IP address since
those are the variables which pppd exports for the run-parts scripts. I
made sure that the script was marked executable, but that didn't
help.
I have also tried
running the commands from within /etc/ip-up.
Has anyone had any
joy with this method, or can anyone suggest another?
Thanks
Ben
