Can't access to access to my web server inside a network with Firewall on
- by ianenri
I set up a Web server with the following:
There is the Internet Router, configured to Port Foward port 80 to my computer assigned to my PC's IP: 192.168.1.128
My PC is connected to that wireless router from wlan0
Then, my PC is also connected to my device (which is the webserver) with a crossover-cable usign eth0 having this anohter IP: 10.42.43.1
Finally, my device (the webserver) is connected with eth0 with this IP: 10.42.43.55
As you can see, I need to install a reverse-proxy to be able to resolve to my device's webserver.
I installed pound (proxy server) in my PC and configured properly to make 192.168.1.128 resolve to 10.42.43.55
So, I just typing my ISP provided IP 200.x.x.x resolves to my device webserver. But there's a problem: I HAD TO STOP MY FIREWALL.
I don't know how I need exactly configure the firewall in SUSE YAST2, or at least iptables. Stopping it is not an option, not for security reasons, just because there's port fowarding rule that is needed to give Internet access to my device too.
I'm using openSUSE 12.1
