<0> hey guys, how do you make sshd only accept connections from certain ip's?
<1> DanS: you can use /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny
<1> or iptables
<0> hmm. i checked the hosts.deny file and it's empty
<0> (its set to allow only one ip currently.. i need to change that ip)
<1> DanS: hosts.allow an example :)
<2> DanS, be very very careful
<1> sshd : 192.168.1.1 : allow
<2> if its a remote box..you could lock yourself out
<1> sshd : ALL : deny
<0> OmegaEvil: its in this office
<2> k as long as you have permanent physical access to it
<2> or a remote console unit
<1> DanS: http://closedsrc.org/dn-articles/hosts_allow.html there :))
<0> bot my hosts.allow and host.deny are empty
<1> DanS: you need to fill it :p



<1> with the correct info
<0> znx: yes, but its already set somewhere else on the machine
<0> It's allowing a 67.36.<i wont finish this ip> ip to connect
<0> i need to change it from that ip to something else
<0> I don't want to allow that ip anymore
<1> DanS: ok thats in iptables then probably
<1> what do you use to look after your firewall?
<1> what script i mean
<0> where is iptables located?
<1> iptables is a command
<0> I'm not sure; this is an old cobalt that someone installed sshd on
<0> oh ok, my bad :)
<1> DanS: iptables -L <-- will list the current ruleset
<0> command not found
<1> DanS: as root?
<0> yep, im in as root
<1> did you su -
<1> to become root?
<0> still not found
<1> hrmm ..
<0> thought it might not be in the path so I tried a locate, no results
<0> here's a better question....
<0> how can I just search the contents of all files in /etc/ and its subdirectories, for a string (67.36)
<1> DanS: find /etc -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep "67.36"
<0> hmm
<0> that didnt find it either
<0> any other directories where something like that might be stored?
<1> DanS: hrmm not really..
<1> could it be the interface its listening on?
<0> its listening on a public ip thats accepting connections on other ports (80, 21, etc)
<1> and only one ip can be accepted?
<0> huh?
<1> DanS: is the sshd restricted to only one ip being accepted ?
<0> oh, let me check
<0> nope
<0> its listening on all ip's
<0> (just tried connecting to a different ip on it)
<1> so .. its only one batch of ip's that cant connect?
<0> from my 67.36. address, I can connect to SSH on any IP that server is listening on
<0> but if I try connecting from x.y.z to that server on any IP, it won't accept the connection
<1> could the restrict be elsewhere in the system?
<1> ie that box allows everything .. but some firewall in between xyz and the box doesnt?
<1> xyz --> firewall --> sshd box
<0> hmm
<0> i guess ill leave this server till another time
<0> anyway, on the other server, hosts.allow is whats' being used
<0> sshd : localhost : allow \ sshd : 1.2.3.4 : allow \ sshd : all : deny
<0> so i can just add another line there
<0> do I need to restart some service for the hosts.allow file to take effect
<1> no
<1> it reads host for each connection
<0> hmm, it didnt effect it?
<0> do i need to restart ssh after doing that?
<0> lol
<0> It would help if the connection I was testing it from wasn't blocking outgoing connections on that port... :P
<1> hehe
<2> May the hack be with you!
<2> znx im seriously considering to buy php programming
<1> :o
<2> the new version is out in april



<1> nice
<0> should a full ip end with a period in proftpd.conf ? I see that when it's only a three-part ip it ends with a period
<2> nice to have as a reference
<2> never used proftpd
<2> its had its share of secuirty issues in the past
<1> vsftpd >
<2> pureftpd > vsftpd
<1> :O
