Opening a Linux port on Squid
 

Hi All

Can someone help, I am trying to open port 15000 on my Linux Redhat 7.3

Thanks

please specify your intention.
a) do you want to open a port on squid or b) on your box ?

a) -> squid.conf (default http_port 3128)
b) -> iptablesDefault:

???

Hi overlord73

Sorry I was looking at Linux Config, I thought it was squid config. I want to open a port on Linux particular port number 15000.

Thanks

Hmm .. maybe u just need to learn more bout firewall rules, if u want to open some ports on your machine you have to make sure it won't harm you. Okieee .. if u want to open some ports on your machine you have to add this rule to your firewall rules (i'm using shorewall for my firewall /etc/shorewall/rules) :

.::if u want to allow your local network to access all resources on port TCP 15000
ACCEPT:info loc all tcp 15000

.::if u want to allow access from internet to your firewall on port TCP 15000
ACCEPT:info net fw tcp 15000

.::if u want to forward traffic from internet to other machine (not the firewall machine) on TCP 15000
DNAT net loc:ip.address.other.machine tcp 15000


and so on

okiee dookieee
