Hello, I've been trying solve this for the past few months and still no success. I would appreciate any hints as to what I am overlooking.
I am trying to connect from 75.154.176.159 to 72.55.144.9:82 VMware Server Host: 72.55.184.45 Guest VM on host machine sharing one nic (eth0) using vmware bridged networking (vmnet0): 72.55.144.9 I am attempting to allow internet access through the host's eth0 on port 82 to a guest virtual machine on the same host. It sounds straightforward... I've read the manuals/googled and tried many various configurations changes and recommendations from setups similar to mine. I must be missing something, though I cannot seem to find the problem. I am not as experienced with firewall/networking as I'd like to be. The log is showing me being rejected. The interesting thing, is that finally in frustration, I built a box at home with the exact specifications as the colo server, and I had no issues connecting to port 82! As far as I can tell I have mirrored everything (software and configuration) except the exact hardware. When I turn off Shorewall on the colo server host, I am able to connect to the application at 72.55.144.9:82 When I turn it on, I cannot connect. On the home setup, I can connect whether Shorewall is on or not. Setup: VMware host server in colo running Debian Etch, Shorewall 3.2.6, VMware Server 2 (was running ver.1 with same results). A guest is running a Windows virtual machine (with app. accepting port 82 requests). VMware is using bridged networking for the guest machine. I've sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> the status.txt.gz that is the output from */sbin/shorewall reset* and */sbin/shorewall dump > /tmp/status.txt* . The connection attempt that is failing shows up in the logs as: Jun 8 20:20:45 FORWARD:REJECT:IN=eth0 OUT=eth0 SRC=75.154.176.159 DST=72.55.144.9 LEN=48 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=117 ID=51513 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=4161 DPT=82 WINDOW=65535 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Thank you for your time. -David ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
