This may not seem bad, but to me it seems that this defeats the point of NAT if somebody can steal your sessions. Note the section on TCP sequence prediction. This was a Sonicwall SOHO firewall. ======= Host (192.168.1.254) appears to be up ... good. Initiating SYN half-open stealth scan against (192.168.1.254) Adding TCP port 80 (state open). The SYN scan took 8 seconds to scan 1523 ports. For OSScan assuming that port 80 is open and port 1 is closed and neither are firewalled Interesting ports on (192.168.1.254): (The 1518 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed) Port State Service 23/tcp filtered telnet 67/tcp filtered bootps 80/tcp open http 137/tcp filtered netbios-ns 514/tcp filtered shell TCP Sequence Prediction: Class=64K rule Difficulty=1 (Trivial joke) Sequence numbers: 3EC519BD 3EC613BD 3EC70DBD 3EC807BD 3EC901BD 3EC9FBBD Remote operating system guess: Accelerated Networks - High Speed Integrated Access VoDSL OS Fingerprint: TSeq(Class=64K) T1(Resp=Y%DF=N%W=2000%ACK=S++%Flags=AS%Ops=MNW) T2(Resp=N) T3(Resp=Y%DF=N%W=2000%ACK=O%Flags=A%Ops=) T4(Resp=Y%DF=N%W=2000%ACK=O%Flags=R%Ops=) T5(Resp=Y%DF=N%W=0%ACK=S++%Flags=AR%Ops=) T6(Resp=Y%DF=N%W=0%ACK=O%Flags=R%Ops=) T7(Resp=Y%DF=N%W=0%ACK=S%Flags=AR%Ops=) PU(Resp=Y%DF=N%TOS=0%IPLEN=38%RIPTL=148%RID=E%RIPCK=0%UCK=0%ULEN=134%DAT=E) Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 8 seconds ====== Dan Ferris Percept Technology mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.percept.com
