Iptables w/port forwarding
Hello everyone. I'm a extreme linux newbie. I've known of linux for years but never fooled with it. Here's my question/problem. I have a friend that is fairly knowledgeable with linux and I waited to setup a firewall using Red Hat 7.2. Well he went through the install and showed me things I understood things I didn't. He got the iptable script up and running. I'm on a DHCP cable modem so we used a DHCP script. So far so good my clients could get the net and so on. We setup port forwarding and it worked for 1 1/2 days now I can't seem to get it working again. Here's my script I hope someone cann help me out. I got this from Linuxhelp.net and made my IP adjustments.
Thanks... #!/bin/sh IPTABLES="/sbin/iptables" #Time to clean house #Clear out any existing firewall rules, and any chains that might have #been created $IPTABLES -F $IPTABLES -F INPUT $IPTABLES -F OUTPUT $IPTABLES -F FORWARD $IPTABLES -F -t mangle $IPTABLES -F -t nat $IPTABLES -X #Setup our policies $IPTABLES -P INPUT DROP $IPTABLES -P OUTPUT ACCEPT $IPTABLES -P FORWARD ACCEPT #This enables ip forwarding, and thus by extension, NAT #Turn this on if you're going to be doing NAT or Masquerading #echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward #Our actual rules #Our NAT stuff #Source NAT everything heading out the eth0 (external) interface to be the #given IP.

ok try this:
delete the lines in your script that say: ps. I assume the ip address of the internal system can be pinged from the firewall its self. #This one maps port 80 to 192.168.1.40.

Thanks Raz.
How secure is that script? I also need to open up a few ports for online gaming. Can you help with that? This is all so new to me and I'm learning more everyday. Thanks! |
it's not secure.
Basically if your http or ftp service on the remote system has a security bug then it needs to be patched. If you setup your script correctly then as long as you don't host the games, you should be able to connect to online game servers with stateful firewall inspection and NAT. /Raz |
Do you know where I can get a sample strong script? I'd like to see one so I can try to figure this stuff out. Since I'm a :newbie: Thanks for your help on this. :)

Ok here's a secure script I wrote for one of my test systems.

One more question then I'll leave you alone for now. I'm on a DHCP cable modem how would I setup the script for that?
Thanks I've got plenty to play with over the holidays. |
thanks !

ok last question, I'm off for a few days for Xmas. :)
Replace the line that says: # internet INET_IP="198.81.129.100" with............ INET_IP="`/sbin/ifconfig eth0 2> /dev/null | grep 'inet addr' | awk '{print $2}' | sed -e 's/.*://'`" That will get your DHCP ip address. /Raz |
