Howdy all.
I know we've been through this before, but I'm having a problem with a PC
Anywhere host behind a masq firewall. In my testing at home, I have RedHat 6,
with portforwarding compiled into kernel 2.2.5. Below are the masq-admin
commands I'm using. The commands run without an obvious syntax error,
which leads me to believe that I have them correct. The 205. address is my ISP
connection, ppp. The 192 address is the Anywhere host. The ports come from
the Symantec web site.
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 205.238.99.30 5631 -R 192.168.1.5 5631
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P udp -L 205.238.99.30 5632 -R 192.168.1.5 5632
My test connection is from an isolated PC dialing in to the same ISP as the masq
machine. PC Anywhere won't connect, giving a timeout error. I can telnet to
205...30 on port 5631, and get a response of "press Enter to continue," at which
time the host disconnects. Any thoughts on this setup? I hope I've given all the
pertinent info.
Now for the fun part: The client site is running a Cobalt Qube as their firewall.
As far as I can tell, there's no port forwarding installed. I couldn't find either
"ipportfw" or "ipmasqadm" on the system. Is there a way to tell if support is
installed in the kernel? Like an entry under /proc?
There are dire warnings about modifying "system files" and voiding warranties
on this system. Needless to say, the kernel source tree is empty. I'm becoming
less impressed with this system, the more I work with it. Anybody have any
experience here?
Thanks, as always.
