Between FC4 and FC6 something changed in either the default iptables
firewall or Amanda. I finally got Amanda backups working to my primary
desktop and laptop but had to add the following firewall rule:
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -s 192.168.255.254 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 32768:
-j ACCEPT
where 192.168.255.254 is my backup server. This opens all TCP ports
starting at 32758 and higher to my backup server. I discovered this by
adding a logging rule right before my final reject rule (handy way to
diagnose firewall problems with applications).
So, which changed? The firewall (now rejecting ports it used to leave
open) or Amanda (using ports that ip_conntrack can't follow)?
Cheers,
Dave
