[leaf-user] Bering Citrix WinFrame?
Hi folks, My wife has a computer that needs to access a server at her workplace running Citrix WinFrame. Does anyone know: will I have to open a port on Bering in order for the signal to pass through? I know Citrix runs on port 1494, but I'm not sure if I'll need to modify my Bering 1.2 firewall for success. Comments???

You probably could do all that you say but why bother with all the hassle and any unforeseen compatibility issues? Do yourself a favor and use the UML. You can run it within your familiar Mandrake 9 system. And for uClibc, compile for them instead of Glibc. Hmm...

I read it to mean that he or she wanted to make changes to the files without actually moving them to the LEAF router before (and perhaps back after) doing so.

I've not worked with bering enough to know what's packaged by default, but probably the firewall-side stuff is setup as part of weblet, but the java applet is not included to save space.

If I leave the hosts.allow file at ALL: 192.168.63.0/255.255.255.0 it will work. If I change it to just a host and not a subnet it fails. How do you make this change? As I recall, the only form that hosts.allow and hosts.deny will work with reliably is (for example) ALL:192.168.63.11/255.255.255.255 (not either 192.168.63.11 by itself or 192.168.63.11/32). Per the Bering installation guide for the host.allow:: If you want that only 192.168.1.1 from your internal network can access to the firewall through ssh and weblet, you will have: ssh: 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.255 www: 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.255 stat: 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.255 of course my IP address is 192.168.63.11/255.255.255.255 which will not work for weblet but will work for ssh, or at least I think it works for ssh. I get a connecting to host and then starting session. It fails after that though. Next thread I'll tackle that one. The smallest subnet I have been able to use successfully is a /28. Everything smaller fails. Once again, how are you trying to do this? A /29 netmask is only 8 IP addresses, so .1 and .11 (the addresses you are using for router and client) can't be on the same 29 network. So ALL:192.168.63.11/255.255.255.248 should NOT work. You are only limiting the host that can connect, not routing. I don't think it should make a difference. They can be on the same /28 (or smaller netmask value) network, and they are both on 192.168.63.0/28 (which may explain why /28 and smaller values work). But have you tried (with or without success) ALL:192.168.63.8/255.255.255.248 What I meant to say was that it works with anything larger that a /28. That would obviously give me 14 useable host but I was hoping to limit it to a /32. I also found out that it works as long as I enter the network address but will not work with a host address. In other words: ALL: 192.168.63.8/255.255.255.248 will work for weblet and ssh ALL: 192.168.63.11/255.255.255.255 will not work for weblet but will work for ssh ssh: 192.168.63.11/255.255.255.255 will work www: 192.168.63.0/255.255.255.0 will not work I have changed the weblet config file with the right IP address, I have added the rules for shorewall to allow port 80 from loc, and inetd is uncommented for www. Like I said with a /24 subnet it works. SSH is working correctly from a single host and the config for www is the same. Someone else should comment on this one. It is *possible* that sshd on Bering does not use hosts.allow or hosts.deny for access control ... I don't actually recall. (BTW, when you say the config is the same, do you mean that you are running sshd through inetd, not standalone? If not, in what sense are the it and www ... and telnet ... the same?) I meant the syntax is the same for both and I have added them all to the files host.allow and the shorewall rules ...etc. I did notice that the shorewall rules don't influence the connection. I deleted both entries for port 80 and 22 and I still connected. Telnet is also not working, period. Again the config is the same for SSH. Is there something I'm missing? The telnetd daemon, perhaps? I'd be surprised if stock Bering shipped with it, and I don't see a telnet.lrp or telnetd.lrp package anywhere in Jacques' archives. Not really important I was just wanted to test something else.

Andrey Well ... one option that will probably work is to use the device just as a WAP and ignore the router part entirely. I'm assuming here that the 714 has both wireless and UTP ports on the internal side (I have a 713P here, and that's what it has). To do this, you connect the LEAF router to an internal UTP port on the D-Link and make sure the LEAF interface you use is on the same network as the wireless hosts. You also need to tell the wireless hosts that the LEAF router, not the D-Link, is their default gateway, whch may mean you cannot use the D-Link for DHCP assignment. It's not so much that you disable the firewall as that it is that you just don't connect the external interface to anything. I haven't run this WAP recently, but when I did, this sort of configuration worked for me. I also used a double-NAT variant of the sort you describe, and that worked too (but I didn't test it with anything tricky or demanding). As to whether to put the WAP on the LAN or on a DMZ arrangement ... that depends on the general security model you use with your LAN. There is no short, one-size-fits-all answer to that one. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program. SourceForge.net hosts over 70,000 Open Source Projects.

Re: [leaf-user] Compiling for Bering 1.2 and Bering uClibc
Hi James, Compiling for Bering 1.2 and uClibc. Is it *only* possible to compile for Bering 1.2 with a Debian/slink installation? No - there is no need for a separate install or even UML for compiling things for uClibc (unlike with the regular Bering branch). Simply get the uClibc used for Bering uClibc 1.2 from www.uclibc.org (look for version 0.9.15) and the config/patches from http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/leaf/src/bering-uclibc/configs/uclibc/0.9.15/ and you should be all set. If you want to be really bleading edge, you can get buildtool (see http://lrp.hejl.de/devel/book1.html on how to get it and how to get started with it) - it takes a little more work for setup on compiling programs the first time, but it pays off in the long run (I surely found that out with the recent ssh updates). But that only works for Bering uClibc 2.0 (which uses uClibc 0.9.20 - hopefully soon the versions of uClibc will be the binary combatible between at least minor releases). Or can I take, say, Mandrake 9 and compile with a target OS? Just tell it which Glibc to use for instance. And install a different gcc. Will that work? It should - have a look at the docs at uclibc.org for info on that - but be sure to use the exact same version of uclibc as in Bering uClibc 1.2 when compiling - otherwise you'll run into trouble.
