Hi! I've been trying to set up ipfw on my FreeBSD box which I use as a gateway to the Internet on my LAN.
I compiled the kernel with options IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT, edited rc.conf and some other files. Now I have 2 problems: 1.) Each time FreeBSD boots ppp automatically establishes a connection via ISDN. I do not want it to do that, I want the connection to be established when some of the other 2 boxes I have on my LAN run software that demands an internet connection. For Example, if I run firefox on my linux box, i want the FreeBSD box to receive the linux boxes request for a connection and dial my ISP via ISDN. In rc.conf I set ppp_mode="auto" because in ppp's man page it says that this is the correct mode for on-demand connection. 2.) Although I set up my firewall rules I cannot acces anything on the outside net anymore, and my other 2 boxes can't acces the Internet after setting aup the firewall. Also I cannot acces the squid proxy I set up on my FreeBSD box anymore. All of this was working before I set up the firewall. What am I doing wrong? Why can't I access the net outside my home LAN and why doesn't squid work anymore? Here's my firewall rule file: fwcmd="/sbin/ipfw" #Outside interface oif="tun0" #Inside interface iif="rl0" # Force a flushing of the current rules before reload $fwcmd -f flush #Check the state of all packets $fwcmd add check-state #Divert all packets through the tunnel interface. $fwcmd add divert natd all from any to any via oif # Allow all data from my network card and localhost $fwcmd add allow all from any to any via lo0 $fwcmd add allow ip from any to any via $ii0 # Allow all connections that I initiate $fwcmd add allow tcp from any to any out xmit oif setup # Once connections are made, allow them to stay open $fwcmd add allow tcp from any to any via oif established # Everyone on the internet is allowed to connect $fwcmd add allow tcp from any to any 22 setup $fwcmd add allow tcp from any to any 21 setup $fwcmd add allow tcp from any to any 8080 setup $fwcmd add allow tcp from any to any 53 setup $fwcmd add allow tcp from any to any 4662 setup $fwcmd add allow udp from any to any 4672 setup # This sends a RESET to all ident packets $fwcmd add reset log tcp from any to any 113 in recv oif # Allow outgoing DNS queries ONLY to the specified servers $fwcmd add allow udp from any to 161.53.114.135 53 out xmit tun0 $fwcmd add allow udp from any to 161.53.114.145 53 out xmit tun0 # Allow them back in with the answers $fwcmd add allow udp from 161.53.114.135 53 to any in recv oif $fwcmd add allow udp from 161.53.114.145 53 to any in recv oif # Allow ICMP $fwcmd add 65435 allow icmp from any to any # Deny all the rest. #$fwcmd add 65435 deny log ip from any to any -- "It was as though a veil had been rent. I saw on that ivory face the expression of sombre pride, of ruthless power, of craven terror -- of an intense and hopeless despair. Did he live his life again in every detail of desire, temptation, and surrender during that supreme moment of complete knowledge?" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
