My problem is that my DNS this going out with IP NAT(Masquerade) Somebody can help me ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rob Sterenborg" <rsterenborg@xs4all.nl> To: "Netfilter (E-mail)" <netfilter@lists.netfilter.org> Sent: Wednesday, November 13, 2002 9:21 AM Subject: RE: SNAT > > > > > iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -p udp -s 192.168.0.1 --sport 53 -j > > > > > SNAT --to-source 200.200.200.1:53 > > > > > I don't know if dns traffic is always sent *from* 53/udp, but I do > > > > know it is always sent *to* 53/udp. > > > > Not *always* :-) Sometimes it goes to 53/tcp... > > > I think that the DNS traffic goes only on 53/tcp when transfering > > zones, and it uses the 53/udp for the queries. > > > > Also, if you use the BIND implementation of the DNS server, you > > can specify the source port, so the traffic can go from > > 53/udp to 53/udp > > Of course you're right. > Anyway, I interpret the original question as how to SNAT normal dns traffic > because the rule he wrote was using the udp protocol for *source* port > 53/udp, which doesn't have to match *all* dns traffic (if it does). > That's why I mentioned that I don't know if dns traffic always come *from* > port 53/udp (here it doesn't ; it uses some port above 1024), but I do know > it's going *to* port 53/udp. > > > Rob > > >
