Although no strictly a 'firewall' question, I expect the experts on iptables are on this list.
I have Debian lenny. $ uname -r 2.6.32.21-m64-mb1 I'm trying to get the following iptables command to work (response shown on lines 2 & 3): $ sudo iptables -v -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080 REDIRECT tcp opt -- in * out * 0.0.0.0/0 -> 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpt:80 redir ports 8080 iptables: No chain/target/match by that name The system config checks I have run are: $ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 1 $ sudo iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination $ /sbin/lsmod Module Size Used by xt_tcpudp 2431 0 iptable_nat 4110 0 nf_nat 13465 1 iptable_nat iptable_filter 1410 0 ip_tables 14618 2 iptable_nat,iptable_filter x_tables 13916 3 xt_tcpudp,iptable_nat,ip_tables ipv6 254105 16 nls_iso8859_15 4734 1 nls_cp850 4985 1 It looks as though I am missing a kernel module - one that would supply the PREROUTING and REDIRECT chain targets. Is that what's wrong? On a Ubuntu system the above command works OK. On executing /sbin/lsmod on the Ubuntu system a module 'ipt_REDIRECT' is listed - which would seem to be what I need on the Debian system. I've looked in /lib/modules/2.6.32.21-m64-mb1/kernel/net/ ipv4/netfilter It contains the following filters: arptable_filter.ko arpt_mangle.ko iptable_filter.ko iptable_nat.ko ip_tables.ko ipt_ah.ko ipt_ECN.ko ipt_MASQUERADE.ko ipt_ULOG.ko nf_nat.ko arp_tables.ko ip_queue.ko iptable_mangle.ko iptable_raw.ko ipt_addrtype.ko ipt_ecn.ko ipt_LOG.ko ipt_REJECT.ko nf_nat_ftp.ko nf_nat_sip.ko Looks like there are several there related to ip tables, but not (obviously) the one I need! Can anyone tell me how to get REDIRECT working, or suggest further diagnostics? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
