I changed the port from 8069 to 8070 using these
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8069
and then also in config.py I changed the port to 8070.
It works with one exception. All the emails like password resets etc are still sending my users the port 8069. Where is the setting to change the email sending address so it portray the correct port number?
I am using odoo.
thanks

I want to record the packets (using tcpdump) after iptables, but it seems that tcpdump will record all the packets. I don't want the packet dropped by iptables.
Is there any way to
record the packets after iptables? or
output the packets (processing by iptables) into pcap/log file?
Thanks.
Tcpdump acts before iptables for inbound traffic, but you can use iptables "NFLOG" extension to reach your goal: http://ipset.netfilter.org/iptables-extensions.man.html#lbDI
Using "NFLOG" destination you can log desired packets to userspace application, and that's where tcpdump belongs (you can also assign traffic to a specific group and then tell tcpdump to listen from it).
Webserver (very basic) example, let's pretend you are accepting http/https traffic and dropping ssh:
#BASIC RULES
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j DROP
#NFLOG REDIRECT ONLY HTTP TRAFFIC
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j NFLOG
#TCPDUMP ONLY ON MATCHED TRAFFIC (=HTTP)
tcpdump -i nflog
I'm wondering if I could forward SQL queries from localhost to another local IP address?
I don't want to install SQL Server on Linux, but I need to connect to it on another PC through localhost.
Thanks
You can use iptables:
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth0 -s localhost -d x.x.x.x --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT
where x.x.x.x is the mysql server ip address, and eth0 is the interface you use.
It seems like you are asking if you are on a Linux machine you want to query to localhost and have that query forwarded to a SQL Server. In this case the above answer is partially correct and will allow packets to be forwarded but doesn't actually perform the forward/redirect. You also say "SQL Server" which I take to mean MS SQL Server. The default port in this case is listed as 1433. You would actually need (2) rules:
# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i lo -d localhost --dport 1433 -j DNAT --to-destination x.x.x.x # where x.x.x.x is the SQL Server IP address
# iptables -A FORWARD -i lo -p tcp --dport -j ACCEPT # only if your default FORWARD policy is DROP. Otherwise you just need the prerouting rule.
I have 2 kinds of proxies in my local machine : stunnel and TOR-VPN.
stunnel is listening on port 6666
TOR-VPN is listening on port 9040
I want to get web traffic to go to stunnel first and the output traffic of stunnel go to tor-vpn. This needs double redirecting. is it possible to do it with iptables? I mean by using "table nat chain OUTPUT".
Because as far as I know "table nat chain OUTPUT" cant be called twice.
web traffic = browser listening on 127.0.0.1:6666
these are my rules:
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 6666
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m tcp -j
REDIRECT --to-ports 9040
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m udp
--dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 53
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 6666 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m tcp
--dport 9040 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -p udp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m udp
--dport 53 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner bob -j DROP
the above rules make stunnel work independently from TOR/VPN.
i mean when browser is set with proxy, no traffic will go through TOR/VPN but if i turn off the proxy in browser, all traffic will go through TOR/VPN.
now i want to let browser have the proxy on and all web traffic go to stunnel first, but outgoing stunnel traffic(outgoing loopback traffic) redirects to TOR/VPN(127.0.0.1:9040)
is it possible ? how can i do that? somehow i mean double redirecting inside system.
Policy of all tables is ACCEPT
Checking that this is what you mean :
You have stunnel bound to port 6666 (localhost:6666) and you have tor bound to 9040 (localhost:9040). You want it so your web traffic will go THROUGH stunnel (so destination is localhost:6666) but the OUTBOUND traffic FROM stunnel (with inbound traffic originally from your client redirected to stunnel) should be DESTINED to tor (localhost:9040) ? Is this correct ?
If so, and I am thinking clearly enough (it is just 7:00 and I've been awake far too many hours for a difficult night), this is indeed possible (the reverse is, too). You need to masquerade the destination address (and indeed port) based on the source (address and port (you don't have to specify both, I might add)). Something like this:
iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --sport 6666 -j DNAT --to-destination 9040
If this is not what you mean (or alternatively I made a typo, am not clear headed or being an idiot in some way (in all cases showing myself to be a user as everyone is!), if any it is probably the latter) then please respond. I'll see about enabling email notification so that I see the response. If I don't, however, I apologise in advance.
As an aside: unless you have a final rule in each CHAIN (not table, just as an fyi: a table is filter, nat (which I specify in the above and indeed it is necessary), etc. and CHAIN is INPUT, OUTPUT, FORWARD and others created by the option -N) you shouldn't have -P ACCEPT ('that which is not explicitly permitted is forbidden' and similar wording - i.e. have DROP). The exception is perhaps OUTPUT (but depends on what you need, in the end). However, when dealing with interface 'lo' you'll want to ACCEPT all traffic always, in any case (i.e. specify -i lo and -o lo, depending on chain, and jump to ACCEPT). Of course, maybe you're behind another device but still best practise to not accept anything and everything! (I should also state that you have different chains per table so yes you can specify different tables but the policy is for the chain IN that table)
Edit: something else: no, you don't have to deal with SNAT when you want DNAT and the reverse is true. Anything to the contrary is a misunderstanding. The reason is you're masquerading the CONNECTION. As the man page shows:
It specifies that the destination address of the
packet should be modified (and all future packets in this connection will also be mangled), and rules should cease being examined.
Edit:
If I understand you (now) you actually have two interfaces involved. Or more specifically you need the following:
You have a service you want encrypted. This is tor. Now, you're using stunnel to do this. To this end you want stunnel to forward traffic to tor. Is this right? If yes, then know that stunnel has the following directives (I actually use similar for something else). Here's a mock setup of a service.
[tor]
accept = 6666
connect = 9040
In addition, just as a note: connect can also be a remote address (remote address implies an external address (with port) or even a certain interface (by IP and also with port) on the system (I use external in the sense of you specify ip and port rather than just a port). Furthermore, accept can specify address (with same rules: ip before the port (except that it is obviously on the local machine so no external IP)). You could explain it, perhaps, as stunnel is where the service would bind to except that the service is stunnel and the service it is encrypting is elsewhere (shortly: the bind(2) call allows specific IP or all IPs on the system, and you're basically configuring stunnel to do this).
(And yes, you're right: the sport should have been dport.)
IF this is not what you need then I do not understand all variables. In that case, if you can elaborate on which interfaces (this includes ports and which service per interface) are involved as well as clients involved (and where they send). Because it is a lot more helpful if others know EXACTLY what you need than infer certain parts. Makes it much easier to solve a problem if you know what the problem is entirely. Maybe I've been dense and I should put together it all (and I admit sleep problems - which I have for a long, long time - does not help that, but...) I haven't, I think.
I found the answer by myself. in my first post, i said something that was completely wrong and because of that, i could not do double redirecting.
i said:
Because as far as I know "table nat chain OUTPUT" cant be called twice
it is wrong and "table nat chain OUTPUT" can be called twice. i dont know what exactly i did 2 months ago that thought "table nat chain OUTPUT" cant be called twice.
this is the tables and chains order when using some services on loopback interface or not:
Without having any services on loopback:
Generated packets on local machine -> nat(OUTPUT) -> filter(OUTPUT) -> wlan(ethernet) interface
With having some services on loopback:
Generated packets on local machine -> nat(OUTPUT) -> filter(OUTPUT) -> loopback interface -> nat(OUTPUT) -> filter(OUTPUT) -> wlan(ethernet) interface
these are my rules to solve the problem:
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 6666 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 6666
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9040
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m udp --dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 53
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d "StunnelServerIp" -o wlan0 -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9040
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m tcp --dport 9040 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -p udp -m owner --uid-owner bob -m udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 6666 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner bob -j DROP
I need some custom iptables for a login page of my wifi hotspot on my raspberry pi. I want an http login page: this is how it should work, I just don't know how to configure the iptables.:
Any connections on an ip address that is not already logged in, should be redirected to the pi's port 8181 (the server for my login page).
Any connections on an ip address that is logged in should be allowed to access the outside internet.
Any connections initially requesting the pi's port 8181 should be allowed.
How should I set this up with iptables?
Thanks!
I've found the following article very helpful when learning iptables:
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Network/IPTables
Basically you can start with a something similar to:
# iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -F
# iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
# iptables -P INPUT DROP
# iptables -P FORWARD DROP
# iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
This will block pretty much everything other than SSH, outgoing connections, and connections that are previously established (ie from previous outgoing connections)
Once that is in place you need to do the redirection:
http://proghowto.com/iptables-redirect-port-80-to-port-8080
And finally you need to run something like the following for each ip that gets authenticated:
# iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.0.4 -j ACCEPT
I have a firewall (based on iptables) at dedicated ubuntu server.
I have several LAN Clients.
At one of my LAN Clients I am running software where I can restrict acces based on IP.
For me it is important that I can restrict that by using WAN IPs so not LAN IPs.
I have configured my firewall so that a/one port is forwarded to a LAN client which work good (solution found at stackoverflow). So far no problems.
However at the LAN client I do not see the IP of external sender but - I think due to the forwarding - the client sees that the packet is coming from my LAN server.
Question is: how to forward a port on my server to another LAN IP with different port, but so that the LAN client recognizes the external IP of the packet.
Lets make it more clear:
server LAN IP: 192.168.1.10
server port: 8080
should be forwarded to:
client LAN IP: 192.168.1.20
client LAN port: 8000
With iptables I have:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 8080 -d 192.168.1.10 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.20:8000
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -d 192.168.1.20 --dport 8000 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp --dport 8000 -d 192.168.1.20 -j SNAT --to 192.168.1.10
As written that works, but when f.i. someone at IP 88.77.66.55 sends a packet then my LAN client (192.168.1.20) sees that the packet is coming from my LAN server (192.168.1.10) and unfortunately not from 88.77.66.55.
Can I fix that...?
Your last rule is the same as a MASQUERADE rule.
eg:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING --out-interface eth0 -j MASQUERADE
With MASQUERADE or SNAT, you are modifying the source-IP address as it goes through the first server. The 2nd server sees the packet and sends it's response back to that IP, which is then sent back to the client.
However, the server sees request as coming from 192.168.1.10 - because that's where it's coming from.
client > gateway > iptables-router > server (sees .10) > iptables-router > gateway > client
If you remove the MASQUERADE/SNAT, the server sees the real IP, but when it sends the reply, the packet is going to it's default gateway (default route) which is probably your router or a gateway at your data center. The client gets a response back from an IP address it doesn't know about, and doesn't know what to do with it, so it looks like it's not working. Alternatively, the gateway/rputer sees a SYNACK with no associated connection and drops the packet.
client > gateway > iptables-router > server > gateway (DROP) or > client (DROP)
If you want the server to get the real IP of the client, here are two common ways to make it work:
Set the gateway (default route) of the server to the IP address of the iptables machine (ie: the machine you are running these iptables rules on). In this case, the server sends all external traffic (ie: a response to a random IP address from the internet) to the MAC address of the iptables machine, which is waiting for a reply. iptables will send it back to the client. The webserver machine is behind the iptables machine, using the iptables machine as a router.
client > gateway > iptables-router > server(real IP) > iptables-router > gateway > client
Use an HTTP proxy like nginx which will work the same way you have it working now, with the client only seeing the internal .10 address. However, because it's a proxy, it can send an HTTP header like X-Original-IP-Address: 123.456.789.012 containing the real IP address of the client.
client > gateway > iptables-router > server (sees X-Original-IP header) > iptables-router > gateway > client

Let us define:
{source address} - packet sender (some remote address)
{interface address} - packet receiver (firewall external address)
{local address} - packet end point receiver local network address
{local gateway} - firewall local address
{proto block} - IP protocols limitation (i.e. -p tcp -m tcp --dport xxxx)
1. If you want the client to see ip address of packet source - do that:
IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -s {source address} -d {interface address} {proto block} -j DNAT --to-destination {local address}
IPTABLES -A FORWARD -d {local address} -j ACCEPT
Do not forget to make:
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
It will enable packets forwarding.
In this case, your end point will see original ip address, however, it will try to respond to default gateway, if this address is not in local network range, add:
route add {source address} gw {local gateway}
this will tell your endpoint to send packets for {source address} via {local gateway} (or reply back).
2. You do not want endpoint to see original ip address and do not want to modify routing tables, then add
IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s {source address} -j MASQUERADE
In this case, LAN client will see only {local gateway} address.
In any case, do not forget to masquerade all packets that are going from your local network to remote addresses by:
IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING !-d 192.168.0.0/16 -j MASQUERADE
You want to keep source address and destination address for further processing. In this case, your {local gateway} will be just a part of packet routing and {local address} has to be just a next hop - use policy routing for that.
First, add your own routing table with lower than 252 tag to /etc/iproute2/rt_tables
Then - you can add rule for {source address} directly to rules set or mark packets from {source address} - both methods will lookup your custom routing table for that packets:
ip rule add from {source address} table custom_table
or
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -s {source address} -j MARK --set-mark 1
ip rule add fwmark 1 table custom_table
And then, make {local address} next hop gateway for these packets:
ip route add default via {local address} table custom_table
Of course, POSTROUTING chain will be applied just before packet exit and you can shape your source address if needed.
Just remove last rule (do not do SNAT).
Or restrict SNAT alloving only masquarading of your LAN clients by adding -o eth0 condition (assuming eth0 is external interface):
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -o eth0 --dport 8000 -d 192.168.1.20 -j SNAT --to 192.168.1.10
