Can anyone tell me the source and meaning and cause of these Shorewall messages.

Sep 14 05:58:26 tis Shorewall:net2all:DROP:IN=eth0 OUT= MAC= SRC=192.168.1.2 DST=192.168.1.255 LEN=232 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=8 DF PROTO=UDP SPT=138 DPT=138 LEN=212

Sep 14 05:59:06 tis Shorewall:net2all:DROP:IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:04:61:79:d0:ac:00:30:bd:6d:a2:64:08:00 SRC=192.168.1.3 DST=192.168.1.2 LEN=96 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=54784 PROTO=UDP SPT=137 DPT=137 LEN=76

It may be helpful to know that I am trying to run Samba as a WINS server.

Thanks for your help.

firewall drops udp traffic on port 137 which is used by samba to communicate with win server. you might want to set a rule to accept that traffic.

Thanks for the help.

My rules are:

Code:

####################################################################################################
#ACTION  SOURCE      DEST         PROTO   DEST    SOURCE      ORIGINAL   RATE      USER/
#                                     PORT    PORT(S)    DEST      LIMIT      GROUP

#DROP     net            fw              tcp     113 #AUTH/IDENT, I added this to show how to block a port
#
ACCEPT    loc      loc    tcp      7741 #LISA
#
# Samba Support
ACCEPT    fw       loc    udp      137:139
ACCEPT    fw       loc    tcp      137,139,445
ACCEPT    fw       loc    udp      1024:          137
ACCEPT    loc      fw     udp      137:139
ACCEPT    loc      fw     tcp      137,139,445
ACCEPT    loc      fw     udp      1024:          137
AllowSMB  loc      loc
AllowSMB  fw       loc
AllowSMB  loc      fw
#
#   Accept SSH connections from the local network for administration
#
ACCEPT      loc      fw      tcp   22
#
#   Allow Ping To And From Firewall
#
ACCEPT      loc      fw      icmp   8
ACCEPT      net      fw      icmp   8
ACCEPT      fw      loc      icmp   
ACCEPT      fw      net      icmp


And my policies are:

Code:
###############################################################################
#SOURCE      DEST      POLICY      LOG      LIMIT:BURST
#                  LEVEL
loc      net      ACCEPT
# If you want open access to the Internet from your Firewall
# remove the comment from the following line.
fw      net      ACCEPT
#
net      all      DROP      info
# THE FOLLOWING POLICY MUST BE LAST
all      all      REJECT      info
#LAST LINE -- DO NOT REMOVE


So I thought I was covered on port 137 using udp.

I have a Gentoo box and a 98SE box on loc. I can see the 98SE box from the Gentoo box, but I can't see the Gentoo Box from the 98SE box when I have Shorewall up.

I seem to be missing something.

???
