I am a satisfied LRP user (many thinks to the folks behind this) with just
enough technical knowledge to be dangerous. I believe am using an older
EigerStein image (/etc/issue says 'LRP 3.1.0'), somewhat modified, as a
firewall/NAT gateway on my private LAN connected to my cable modem. One of
the client machines behind this firewall is a Win98 machine which needs to
access my employer's intranet using a VPN solution provided by Intelispan.
This Intelispan client works if I connect the Win98 machine directly to the
cable modem but when I'm behind the LRP firewall it seems to connect but no
traffic arrives. I can supply whatever other information you'd like. I am
assuming (hoping!) that this is just a matter of opening the correct ports.
I would like to expose the right ports on my Win98 machine to designated
Intelispan hosts as though there were no intervening firewall.
Also, to play my favorite networked game, I need to type in four commands to
open holes in the firewall. Since the router virtually never goes down,
I've just retyped them after booting on those rare occations when I reboot
for some reason.
My questions are:
On other distros, there is something like rc.local or rc.firewall. Where in
LRP do I put commands (e.g., for my game) that I want run each time after
boot?
Let's say I know the ports that need to be open for the VPN, how do I open
them to designated Intelispan hosts as though there was no firewall?
Thanks!
