Hello group, I have done some rules to have a natted DMZ. I have written the portion for access from the company network to the dmz and back. I could access a domino server (port 1352) which is in the dmz without any problems. But the Domino server in the DMZ cannot access the mail hub in the company network with my ruleset. If i turn off the script and just invoke : iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth2 -j SNAT --to-source 10.2.240.19 it works, i could connect to the company networks mail hub. At the time of this executing no other rules apply. eth0 - internet eth1 - dmz eth2 - lan I will be attching the script: /sbin/depmod -a #Required modules /sbin/modprobe ip_tables /sbin/modprobe ip_conntrack #/sbin/modprobe iptable_filter #/sbin/modprobe iptable_mangle #/sbin/modprobe iptable_nat #/sbin/modprobe ipt_LOG #/sbin/modprobe ipt_limit #/sbin/modprobe ipt_state iptables -P INPUT DROP iptables -P FORWARD DROP iptables -P OUTPUT DROP iptables -t nat --policy PREROUTING DROP iptables -t nat --policy OUTPUT DROP iptables -t nat --policy POSTROUTING DROP iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -p tcp --sport 1:65535 \ --dport 80 -d 10.2.240.19 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.128.5:80 iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -p tcp --sport 1:65535 --dport 1352 \ -d 10.2.240.19 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.128.5:1352 iptables -A FORWARD -i eth2 -o eth1 -p tcp --sport 1:65535 \ --dport 80 -d 192.168.128.5 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i eth2 -o eth1 -p tcp --sport 1:65535 \ --dport 1352 -d 192.168.128.5 -m state \ --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i eth2 -o eth1 -p tcp -m state \ --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i eth2 -o eth1 -p udp -m state \ --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth2 -j SNAT --to-source 10.2.240.19 iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -o eth2 --dport 1352 -m state \ --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -p udp -o eth2 --dport 1352 -m state \ --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT Thanks for your time!! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
