Hello, I'm having a wierd problem I cannot solve... I have a pptp connection from my house to my server using 192.168.2.0/24 range ip's I ḿ trying to make mysql access able from the 192.168.2.0/24 network. On the server I've got ufw firewall so I state "ufw insert 4 allow proto tcp from 192.168.2.0/24 to 192.168.2.1 port 3306" This gives ufw status numbered: Status: active
To Action From -- ------ ---- [ 1] 22/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 2] 1723/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 3] Anywhere DENY IN 192.168.254.0/24 [ 4] 192.168.2.1 3306/tcp ALLOW IN 192.168.2.0/24 [ 5] 192.168.2.1 80/tcp ALLOW IN 192.168.2.0/24 [ 6] 80/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 7] 21/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 8] 192.168.2.0/24 DENY IN 192.168.100.0/24 [ 9] 192.168.2.0/24 DENY IN 192.168.1.0/24 [10] 217.148.94.148 25 ALLOW IN Anywhere [11] 217.148.94.148 993 ALLOW IN Anywhere [12] 217.148.94.148 995 ALLOW IN Anywhere looks good I thought... To test I used netcat because mysqld has some restrictions and to rule any mysql problems out first just a netcat connction... so on the server: nc -vl 192.168.2.1 3306 on the client: telnet 192.168.2.1 3306 and it timesout unable to connect... ping 192.168.2.1 on the client gives replys... iptables -L on the client gives ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT and no further rules... hhm... strange... After this I've been looking everyhere to findout eventually the following: ufw delete 4 #delete the existing mysql accept rule ufw insert 4 allow proto tcp from 192.168.2.0/24 to 192.168.2.1 port 3307 ufw status numbered gives: Status: active To Action From -- ------ ---- [ 1] 22/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 2] 1723/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 3] Anywhere DENY IN 192.168.254.0/24 [ 4] 192.168.2.1 3307/tcp ALLOW IN 192.168.2.0/24 [ 5] 192.168.2.1 80/tcp ALLOW IN 192.168.2.0/24 [ 6] 80/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 7] 21/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 8] 192.168.2.0/24 DENY IN 192.168.100.0/24 [ 9] 192.168.2.0/24 DENY IN 192.168.1.0/24 [10] 217.148.94.148 25 ALLOW IN Anywhere [11] 217.148.94.148 993 ALLOW IN Anywhere [12] 217.148.94.148 995 ALLOW IN Anywhere on the server: nc -vl 192.168.2.1 3307 on the client: telnet 192.168.2.1 3307 Connected to 192.168.2.1. Escape character is '^]'.!!!!!!!!!!!! and i can chat as supposed to be able using nc. Apparently there is somewhere in the os a rule which disables access to port 3306, but it's not a iptables rule... Does anyone have a idea what apart from iptables controls network traffic?
