Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Issue with "rsh" on RedHat Post 303028613 by gull04 on Friday 11th of January 2019 06:28:59 AM

Hi Folks,

I said at the begining of this thread that it should have been posted in the Unix for Dummies section and as it transpired that was correct.

When we build servers like these there is a process, it is a bit convoluted - but it delivers the desired end result. But that would appear to be when one person works on it.

The problem turned out to be the firewall had been turned back on by one of our offshore people, I had already stopped the service as per the build standard and created all the support users, one of them had - whilst setting up his environment decided to have a look around the server and contrary to what he was supposed to do. He started the firewall because he assumed that the server would need it!

Turning off the firewall resolved the problem, but didn't get me back the missing day!

Many thanks for all the suggestions and assistance on this.

Regards

Gull04

rsh server "script..." which $PATH is used ?

NAME
mason - interactively create a firewall SYNOPSIS
mason < logfile > rulefile DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the mason command. mason interactively generates a set of firewall rules for a Linux-based firewall. This is done by turning on full IP logging, watching the logs for connections, and generating rules describing the connections seen. mason is familiar with most of the quirks of various connec- tion types (such as ftp and IRC), and can output rules for 2.0.x ipfwadm, 2.2.x ipchains, and Cisco packet filters. mason operates by reading in log file information from standard input and writing firewall rules to standard output. This allows mason to work offline or on a separate system. Real-time firewall generation can be achieved with a command like tail(1). Most users will want to run mason with a user-friendly interface such as mason-gui-text(1). ENVIRONMENT
mason is configured using the following environment variables. ECHOCOMMAND Sets the type of firewall rules that mason should output to standard out. Allowed values include "ipfwadm" and "ipchains". By default, mason outputs whatever kind of rules are supported by the currently running Linux kernel. DOCOMMAND Sets the type of firewall rules that mason should run immediately when a rule is generated. Allowed values include "ipfwadm" and "ipchains". By default, mason outputs whatever kind of rules are supported by the currently running Linux kernel. HEARTBEAT If set to "yes", mason will output a "+" or "-" to standard error whenever a rule generated by mason has been triggered. DYNIP Set this to the list of interfaces that have dynamically assigned addresses, separated by spaces. SEE ALSO
