I have a bit of a problem here with backups: I have a number of phone firmware loads in the tftpboot directory along with phone configuration files. Unfortunately the only backup options for this directory is all /mnt/kd which ends up at around 16M in my situation. Thats not actually the bigges

If these are the only chains that are impacted by this problem then it sounds good. Will give us the flexibility we need. Thanks David On Mon, Jul 16, 2012 at 6:30 PM, Lonnie Abelbeck wrote: > Hi David, > > Well, I wouldn't necessarily call it a "dumb idea" :-) and I explained > Arno's reasoni

Hi David, Well, I wouldn't necessarily call it a "dumb idea" :-) and I explained Arno's reasoning years ago. I have commit privileges to the AIF SVN, so with Arno's approval we and implement any great idea we can come up with. One idea Arno and I had was to add 3 new variables to AIF: -- # (1

Oh dear, I opened a can of worms. I have to say that changing default behavior as a side effect of adding an allow rule feels like a dumb idea. How hard would it be for iptables to be modified such that a final default chain rule can be specified -- which could override a hard coded default rule f

Sigh, now I remember why we didn't previously support "Pass LAN->EXT" and "Pass DMZ->EXT" in the Firewall tab... First, my suggestion to David in this thread for using LAN_INET_HOST_OPEN_UDP does what you expect *but* has the side effect of changing the LAN->EXT default policy from ALLOW to DRO

Thanks to all. I think it was inbound IAX listening on 0/0 (I had failed to narrow it down only to our own boxes), coupled presumably with not amply strong password, and the IAX landing context not being secured against outbound calls, as you say. Adaptive ban was in place, so I'm hopeful it wasn't

David, Arno's Firewall (AIF) automatically places the "Pass LAN->EXT" rules (if any) before the "Deny LAN->EXT" rules. So, no ordering by the user is required. Lonnie On Jul 16, 2012, at 9:16 AM, David Kerr wrote: > When this is all implemented does it matter in what order the rules are > e

When this is all implemented does it matter in what order the rules are entered? For example if iptables comes across a deny that matches the request does it keep on going through the table looking for a rule that might never-the-less permit the request or does it stop -- in which case the rule pe

You would start by analyse the CDR log and looking to see from which context the calls are originating. Make sure that you don't have a "default" context, but if you do need it (to receive legitimate inbound calls) then make sure that this context only permits access to internal extensions, not an

Sorry to hear this... A few notes from the voice of experience: Probable cause: hacked SIP password from an unauthorized IP address. problem could be an overly simplistic or nonexistent SIP secret. look at your logs and see what the source channel(s) are/is and shut that channel or channels do
