[Astlinux-users] 0.6.3 dnsmasq (maybe) problems.

2009-03-01 Thread David Kerr
I have a couple of problems that has just started happening with my
migration from 0.6.2 to 0.6.3 and likely caused by the move to arno
firewall.
I have a port forward set up to forward requests to port 88 from the
external interface to a server on my LAN.  When connecting from outside my
home this works just fine. However, if I am on the LAN (inside my home) and
I try and connect to this server by using a URL that resolves to the
external IP address, then it fails to connect. This used to work. Am I
missing some configuration setting?


Also, DNS resolution is failing for the domain that I configure in the
'network' tab of the web interface. For example, if I set hostname to 'pbx'
and domain to 'me.dyndns.org' then any attempt to resolve the URL '
me.dyndns.org' from devices connected to the LAN fails... nslookup says
can't find me.dyndns.org : Non-existant domain It should resolve (and does
if I replace the domain with something bogus).

These both used to work on 0.6.2 and are now broken. I consider them
critical bugs (or misconfiguration problems).

Thanks
David

2009-03-01 Thread David Kerr
Yes, I was using STATHOSTS to resolve the URL that I have forwarded to an
internal server... stathosts was setup with the actual internal IP address.
The Configure DNS Hosts sub tab should resolve that.  I did not have an
entry for my.dyndns.org in the old setup, but it looks like I need to set
it up now to point to 192.168.1.1, easy enough.
I am having some performance issues with my build of 0.6.3 (geni586-serial)
on my Alix 2c3 so I have gone back to 0.6.2 on my production system while I
build a net5501 version of 0.6.3 in case something is not-quite compatible
between geni586 and Alix (I have always used net5501 versions up-until this
point).

 David,

 Did you use STATHOSTS before... if so, the web interface now edits the
 STATICHOSTS variable, and is saved in the
 /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/gui.dnshosts.conf file.

 You may choose to redefine your local host names from the Network -
 Configure DNS Hosts sub-tab.

  Darrick,
  Thanks... that is probably the problem.

 David,

 STATHOSTS changed to STATICHOSTS to accommodate some additional features.
  I believe this was clearly stated in the changelog.  It's actually the
 first thing noted in the changelog.

 This should clear things up.  We try to keep disruptive changes to a
 minimum, but sometimes they are necessary to add additional functionality.

Re: [Astlinux-users] 0.6.3 dnsmasq (maybe) problems.

2009-03-01 Thread Philip A. Prindeville
I've similar issues.  www.redfish-solutions.com resolves to
66.232.79.143.  But from behind that device, it has a local
private address:

NAT_FORWARD_TCP=
80192.168.1.13
...


as above in my /etc/arno-iptables-firewall/firewall.conf file (note
NAT_TCP_FORWARD is renamed NAT_FORWARD_TCP... don't get bitten by this).

So I also put:

STATICHOSTS=
...

mail.redfish-solutions.com www.redfish-solutions.com ftp.redfish-solutions.com 
mail~192.168.1.3~00:11:09:04:D5:11

...


into my /mnt/kd/rc.conf file (note the addition of the MAC address for
dnsmasq, and that the name has changed to reflect a new format).

Then when my internal clients try to resolve www.redfish-solutions.com
it goes to the correct internal address (aka split horizon DNS).

Try resolving pbx.me.dyndns.org and see if that works.
