I've actually just started seeing this same error. I do have a rule set for local 127.0.0.1 and an allow for layer2 traffic. Oct 11 23:59:02 firewall sshd[49200]: fatal: Write failed: Permission denied
Yes this is the same exactly message i got. I get this error when updating my firewall rules via ssh. Any current ssh
connections are dropped, but I'm able to reinitiate a new connection without trouble. -Chris
The only difference is that i could not su to root so i could not update any rules remotely. I could login to a normal user account properly though -----Original Message-----

Well actually i copied the following rules from /etc/rc.firewall plus the comment (..because of the comment!) without thinking of it too much and i consider them trusty and i never thought they could cause any problem. Are you suggesting that these rules may be the reason for this? # Only in rare cases do you want to change these rules ${addcmd} 50 allow all from any to any via lo0 ${addcmd} 100 deny all from any to 127.0.0.0/8 ${addcmd} 150 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any Unfortunately i will not be on the machine for the next 7 or so hrs

Without NAT. I am nearly a newbie on this (since i never had time until now..) but still i believe i understand exactly the concepts and what needs to be done. Except the manual page and chapter 26.1 in the handbook I am using good references such as: http://www.freebsd-howto.com/HOWTO/Ipfw-HOWTO I need to connect remotely to the machine using ssh and this is where i get the problem: Initially i can connect properly using a normal user account. When later i am trying to su to root it does nothing and the connection closes. I have ipfw enabled in the kernel to deny everything by default. I have used both (one at a time) the following rules concerning ssh, in /etc/ipfw.rules and also other combinations, such as taking off setup and keep-state etc etc which would then make my firewall stateless as far as i understood, which is something i don't want anyway. ${addcmd} 300 allow log logamount 5 tcp from any to me 22 setup keep-state - ${addcmd} 300 allow log logamount 5 tcp from any to any ssh keep-state In a first investigation (not thorough) i found this post: http://www.freebsdforums.org/forums/showthread.php?t=21876 where from, i cannot realize what is wrong or how to fix this. I run the sshd in debug mode and below is the portion, for when i am trying to su to root /* sshd -d */ Write failed: Permission denied debug1: do_cleanup debug1: PAM: cleanup debug1: do_cleanup debug1: PAM: cleanup debug1: session_pty_cleanup: session 0 release /dev/ttyp7 And here are related logs: /* line from /var/log/messages */ Oct 11 20:25:54 username sshd[26251]: fatal: Write failed: Permission denied /* /var/log/auth.log */ Sep 26 11:17:34 username sshd[50073]: Connection from xxx.xxx.xxx.xx port 1545 Sep 26 11:17:46 username sshd[50073]: Accepted keyboard-interactive/pam for user from xxx.xxx.xxx.xx port 1545 ssh2 Sep 26 10:17:49 username su: user to root on /dev/ttyp4 Sep 26 11:17:51 username sshd[50068]: Read error from remote host xxx.xxx.xxx.xx: Connection reset by peer Sep 26 13:29:40 username sshd[50076]: Read error from remote host xxx.xxx.xxx.xx: Operation timed out Is it trying to write to a socket? I cannot see what is trying to do and the permission is denied (of course maybe it is in front of me..but..) Could anyone please advice?
