Communication over firewall
Hey GUys,
Once again I run in to problem and I am here for ur help.
I have two sun(solaris) box on company LAN.
One Unix Box is behind the firewall and the other one is Outside the firewall. The thing i need to do is
remote display a graphic on Unix box outside the firewall to the Unixbox behind the firewall. I have no idea how i am gonna do this. How safely can I do this kind of configuration avoiding the risk of someone hacking in to the system behind the firewall.
I have tried to find out information on the web and this forum itself but somehow its not clear.
rsh or ssh might solve the problem of display part but what all settings i need to change to make this work.
Will really apprecitae ur expertise .
Tx

NAME
ipkungfu - An iptables-based firewall for Linux
SYNOPSIS
ipkungfu [ -c ] [ -t ] [ -d ] [ -h ] [ -v ] [ --quiet ] [ --panic ] [ --no-caching
DESCRIPTION
ipkungfu is an iptables-based Linux firewall. The primary design goals are security, ease of use, and performance, in that order. It takes
advantage of advanced features of iptables, tcpwrappers, and the Linux kernel. It also simplifies the configuration of internet connection
sharing, advanced routing, and other networking needs.
OPTIONS
-c (or --check)
Check whether ipkungfu is loaded, and report any command line options it may have been loaded with.
-t (or --test)
Runs a configuration test, and displays the results. Note that this does not test or display all configuration options. This
gives you an opportunity to verify that major configuration options are correct before putting them into action.
-d (or --disable)
Disables the firewall. It is important to know exactly what this option does. All traffic is allowed in and out, and in the
case of a gateway, all NATed traffic is forwarded (the option retains your connection sharing options). Custom rules are not
implemented, and deny_hosts.conf is ignored.
-f (or --flush)
Disables the firewall COMPLETELY. All rules are flushed, all chains are removed. Any port forwarding or internet connection
sharing will cease to work.
-h (or --help)
Displays brief usage information and exits.
-v (or --version)
Displays version information and exits.
--quiet Runs ipkungfu with no standard output
--panic Drops ALL traffic in all directions on all network interfaces. You should probably never use this option. The --panic option
is available for the highly unusual situation where you know that an attack is underway but you know of no other way to stop
it.
--failsafe If ipkungfu fails, --failsafe will cause all firewall policies to revert to ACCEPT. This is useful when working with ipkungfu
remotely, to prevent loss of remote access due to firewall failure.
--no-caching
Disables rules caching feature.
