Just my 2 cents... IPSEC uses UDP port 500 AND ( PROTOCOL 50 OR PROTOCOL 51 ) []s Valter Rehn -----Mensagem original----- De: J J [mailto:c_peto@hotmail.com] Enviada em: Thursday, September 11, 2003 17:26 Para: Philipp.Rusch@rusch-edv.de Cc: suse-security@suse.com Assunto: Re: [suse-security] packets still seem to be dropped not routed despite rp_filter=0 Are you sure? According to the /etc/protocols file there is no protocol 500 - the IP protocols go no higher than 255. That makes sense really seeing as the protocol field in IPV4 is only 8 bits long! (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0791.txt) This is an extract from my current /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2... FW_QUICKMODE="no" FW_DEV_EXT="ppp0" FW_DEV_INT="eth0 ipsec0" FW_DEV_DMZ="" FW_ROUTE="no" FW_MASQUERADE="no" FW_MASQ_DEV="$FW_DEV_EXT" FW_MASQ_NETS="" FW_PROTECT_FROM_INTERNAL="no" FW_AUTOPROTECT_SERVICES="yes" FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP="smtp ssh" FW_SERVICES_EXT_UDP="isakmp" FW_SERVICES_EXT_IP="esp ah" Anyway I made a small amount of extra progress, at least in the way of ruling out problems. I decided to try connecting from the "jellybean" gateway itself to the "Bookman" LAN by creating adjusted entries in ipsec.conf and succeeded. Basically it worked right out of the box, I just removed the leftsubnet declarations on both sides - now the gateway can ping all the servers on the "Bookman" LAN and vice versa. This isn't the long term solution but does at least show that the boxes will talk to each other and send ipsec traffic correctly. Plus I toyed with the latest rdesktop and maybe I can persuade people to use that instead of Win 2k boxes with MSTSC client anyway! :) (ha!) But I'm still not sure why the SuSE 8.2 box is misbehaving and dropping my packets. Do you have any idea how I switch on debugging on the kernel routing code??

Hi Carl, You are victim of a very common misunderstanding concerning IPSEC and the setup of the firewall .... ;-)

Not PORT 500 is needed to setup the tunnel (after negotiation of SA has been done), but PROTOCOL (!!!) 500, which you have to put in the firewall to be allowed through interface ipsec0 (add this to FW_DEV_EXT). Since I do not use SuSE firewall anymore (there are better scripts for iptables) I am not a 100% sure, but I remember that you have to set this in SuSEfirewall2-file as variable FW_SERVICES_EXT_IP = 500.

HTH, Philipp

I'm trying to set up a VPN from "home" LAN to "bookman" LAN. I've set up Freeswan successfully and it *appears* to be doing it's job but still packets aren't getting through. I suspect that routing isn't working for some reason and I've reached the limit of my security knowledge.

Can anyone help?

The set up is this: "Bookman" LAN is subnet 192.168.0.0/24 with Ipsec gateway "flanger" on IP address 192.168.0.127. "Bookman" LAN connects to internet via ADSL ("Vigor") router that has "Ipsec passthru". In terms of configuration this means that I've switched off the "Vigor" router's built-in Ipsec processing and set UDP on port 500 to forward direct to "flanger" on 192.168.0.127. The router's software is set to recognize this combination as a signal to switch on Ipsec passthru so that protocols 50 and 51 are also forwarded to the same internal box.

(We've successfully set up and used an SA to a "Fortigate" router based on this through to another company "SGPM" and we use that VPN for production purposes. It's fast and stable and has impressed management!)

"Home" LAN is subnet 192.168.10.0/24 with Ipsec gateway "jellybean" on external IP address 217.... (hidden for privacy - if that's me being silly I'm happy to reveal it!). The "home" gateway has an ethernet card on 192.168.10.1 with a hub connected to that and (at present) one test laptop connected to the hub running Win 2k.

Ipsec gateway on "Bookman" LAN ("flanger") is running SuSE 7.2 and our gateway here ("jellybean") is running SuSE 8.2 (these seem to be Freeswan 1.91 and 1.99 respectively).

The idea is to have a VPN connecting PCs and laptops on the "home" LAN to the servers on the "Bookman" LAN in production.

Progress so far: With a small amount of tinkering I managed to get the two pluto daemons to talk and agree an SA but was unable to ping servers on the "Bookman" LAN from either our gateway or our test laptop. After help from Rob Maurizzi on this mailing list I managed to get KLIPS debugging and found that, rather boringly, the gateway was unable to ping Bookman servers because packets were being seen by KLIPS as coming from the WAN address of the router (217....) and so had no eroute and were dropped - this was clearly visible in the stats on ifconfig, which helped.

Problem: However this didn't explain why the laptop couldn't reach the Bookman LAN. My initial thought was that routing needed to be switched on. The box is configured as a firewall with a SQUID proxy so the "home" LAN can access the www. SuSEfirewall2 is running to prevent malicious attacks but allow Ipsec traffic. Config is basically - allow external TCP service "ssh" plus external UDP service "isakmp" plus external IP protocols "ah" and "esp", do not protect from internal network, reject rather than drop packets (temporary for debug) and log all dropped packets (temporary for debug).

When I ping from the Win 2k laptop to a Bookman server I see nothing in the firewall logs, nothing in KLIPS debug. I see packets arriving on eth0 but nothing on ipsec0 or ppp0 (the WAN interface).

echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward makes no difference

cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/forwarding gives "1"s for all devices and worse

cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/rp_filter gives "0"s for all devices!

(OK so I capitulated - u can see my wan address - hey, I trust SuSEfirewall2 !! :) ) (Note eth0 stats aren't accurate at the moment, i just created this quickly before rushing to a meeting.)

Does anyone know what happened to my packets?!?
