Firewall Issues.... STUMPED

networking

I was setting up a firewall from ~~[http://www.securecentos.com/basic-security/install-firewall/" target="_blank">](http://www.securecentos.com/basic-secur … -firewall/">http://www.securecentos.com/basic-security/install-firewall/](

I went through the setup step by step, but web connections on port 80 are being blocked. If I stop the firewall apache seems to work. When started it stops working again.

From my logs…

Feb  2 18:41:27 dev kernel: ** IN_TCP DROP ** IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=fe:fd:ad:ff:e4:a8:88:43:e1:7c:75:3f:08:00 SRC=184.57.51.14 DST=173.255.228.168 LEN=56 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=113 ID=26865 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=63533 DPT=80 WINDOW=8192 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0

I did notice some funky stuff going on when I start the firewall, which im thinking must be the issue.

I have googled the "Unknown error 4294967295" but really haven't gotten to far, but the ": command not foundline 539:" can't be good either.

Any ideas???

You probably need to add port 80 to either IGTCPCPORTS in your conf.apf or add a line to allow.rules. Look around for "222" and where ever you see that, add a similar entry with 80 :-)

Thanks Hoopy! You are the man.

I had it somewhere else which must have been conflicting…

There were to lines with IGTCPCPORTS….must have had the one with only 222 over writing the one with all the other ports.

Yup, the last one wins. apf's configuration is a shell script, with all the benefits and drawbacks that implies. Including that. :-)
