Re: [Efw-user] Are EFW appliances any better than the Community version?

I made the switch to pfSense 2-3 years ago and haven't looked back. Use it to 
replace EFW, Cisco PIX/ASA, etc. every chance I get.

[Efw-user] Multiple Interfaces on Green - EFW 2.4.1

2011-02-09 Thread CoryC
Been using EFW on small networks for years and looking into using it to replace 
a couple of Cisco PIX 515E firewalls that are currently linked via VPN on a 
larger 100 user network. I'm not overly familiar with Cisco and want something 
more easily manageable. 

Using a vmware environment to test if EFW can meet the requirements before 
investing in hardware. I need to be able to setup 4 different zones with VPN 
links between some of the zones. I am trying to setup two different subnets on 
Green using two different NICs. 

Needless to say it's not working so I'm reducing to a basic config with 3 nics: 
2 green (eth0 & eth2) w/ 1 IP & 1 red (eth1) w/ 1 IP. I have an XP VM that can 
ping the green IP when it is attached to the same virtual switch as eth0 but 
can not ping the green IP when it attached to the same virtual switch as eth2. 

If I remove eth0 from the green zone then the VM can ping the green IP from the 
eth2 switch. As soon as I re-add eth0 to the green zone I'm no longer able to 
ping the green IP via the eth2 switch but can the eth0 switch. 

Next step will be to take a computer, a laptop, & a crossover cable for my 
testing but before I do I wanted to know if anybody else had tried this yet on 
2.4.1 and confirmed that it worked right.

[Efw-user] Bandwidth usage

2008-04-08 Thread CoryC
Does anybody know of a way I could calculate the
actual bandwidth consumption on EFW for each zone?
Possibly on a dail/weekly/monthly basis.

Thanks.

someone tell me what I need to do to redirect an
outbound port from my green network to another machine
on my green network. Want to redirect the following
ports to 192.168.200.200:

MSN: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp
--destination-port 1863 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 16667

Re: [Efw-user] Problems updating snort

2007-10-22 Thread CoryC
Peter,

Which version of the rules are you using? 

When I put the url for the registered user in a
browser I get an error message that says "Oink!! The
page you requested doesn't exist.". When I change the
url to 2.4.tar.gz I get prompted to save the file. 

However, if I try to use the 2.3 subscriber rules I
get an error message that says "You must have an
active subscription to download this file". I get the
same message for 2.4 as well. 

I'm wondering if they have made the registered ruleset
unavailable and the symptoms you are describing
reflect using the subscriber rules which may still available?

Re: [Efw-user] Problems updating snort

2007-10-21 Thread CoryC
Ok, so doing this broke snort but starting snort from
command line I was able to see that it had issues with
some of the rules. I had to edit /etc/snort/snort.conf
and comment out the following rulesets to get it to
work:

include $RULE_PATH/ftp.rules
include $RULE_PATH/web-client.rules
include $RULE_PATH/netbios.rules

Afterwards I was able to get snort to start
successfully from the console and from the web
interface. 

I haven't looked into the rulesets yet to see which
particular rule was causing snort to croak. 

You can run snort from the command line with the
following: snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf and it will
tell you where the problem might be.

Re: [Efw-user] Problems updating snort

2007-10-21 Thread CoryC
The problem with the updating of snort rules is that
the 2.3 ruleset is no longer available on snort.org. 

I modified the /home/httpd/cgi-bin/ids.cgi file and
replaced 2.3 with 2.4 and didn't get the error when I
clicked on "download new ruleset". It showed that
updated rules were downloaded but I don't know fully
if it is fully working or not yet.

[Efw-user] crontab

2007-10-21 Thread CoryC
I'm trying to port a Smoothwall mod
(http://community.smoothwall.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14049)
over to efw and just about have it working. 

The problem I'm having is getting the following to run
from /etc/crontab:
# perfstats
*/5 * * * * root /usr/local/sbin/pmgraph.pl
/home/httpd/html/perfstats /var/log/snort/snort.stats
>/dev/null

I can run the command from the shell but can't get it
or any other command I add to /etc/crontab to run. 

Suggestions?

I too am having a problem updating Snort on 2.1.2,
getting the MD5 checksum error. Haven't looked at it
too closely yet to see what it could be. 

What graph in particular is it that you want to see?
>From what I can tell the graphs themselves are stored
in the unsecured html/ folder and then included in the
protected cgi-bin/ folder. You will probably have to
make a custom .html page to view the graphs but I
think that as long as it is in the html/ folder it
would work.
