Ola I'm trying to setup port forwarding for ftp and scp (ssh) from internet to an internal host. For http it works fine, both http and https. I've added these rules to /etc/sysconfig/iptables on router (using FC2): #pluto port fwd *nat :PREROUTING ACCEPT [13:704] :POSTROUTING ACCEPT [17:1950] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [16:1890] #-A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE -A PREROUTING -d 81.196.83.211 -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 8080 -j DNAT --to- destination 192.168.0.11:80 -A PREROUTING -d 81.196.83.211 -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 8443 -j DNAT --to- destination 192.168.0.11:443 -A PREROUTING -d 81.196.83.211 -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 20 -j DNAT --to- destination 192.168.0.11:20 -A PREROUTING -d 81.196.83.211 -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 21 -j DNAT --to- destination 192.168.0.11:21 -A PREROUTING -d 81.196.83.211 -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 8022 -j DNAT --to- destination 192.168.0.11:22 -A PREROUTING -d 81.196.83.211 -i eth0 -p udp --dport 21 -j DNAT --to- destination 192.168.0.11:21 -A PREROUTING -d 81.196.83.211 -i eth0 -p udp --dport 8022 -j DNAT --to- destination 192.168.0.11:22 -A PREROUTING -j LOG #SNAT shouldn't be needed, connections are only from outside -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -d 81.196.83.211 --dport 21 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.0.11 -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -d 81.196.83.211 --dport 20 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.0.11 -A POSTROUTING -p udp -d 81.196.83.211 --dport 21 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.0.11 -A POSTROUTING -p udp -d 81.196.83.211 --dport 20 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.0.11 COMMIT *filter :INPUT ACCEPT [374:118200] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [385:44104] ... #pluto port fwd -A FORWARD -p tcp -d 192.168.0.11 -i eth0 --dport 80 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p tcp -d 192.168.0.11 -i eth0 --dport 443 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p tcp -d 192.168.0.11 -i eth0 --dport 21 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p tcp -d 192.168.0.11 -i eth0 --dport 20 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p udp -d 192.168.0.11 -i eth0 --dport 21 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p udp -d 192.168.0.11 -i eth0 --dport 20 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p tcp -d 192.168.0.11 -i eth0 --dport 22 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -j LOG Using ncftp client from outside, one can login but on ls it gives ncftp / > ls [delay] List failed. ncftp / > passive passive on ncftp / > ls connect failed: Network is unreachable.
