Title: 12.04 NAT Port Forwarding Issue
Post by: davegravy on August 12, 2014, 03:13:09 am
Port forwarding doesn't seem to be working, or I'm not understanding how to configure it in webadmin.

Alblasco, you requested this on IRC but I wasn't around.

Also

Code: [Select]
iptables -t nat -vnL

Shouldn't you put some source port definition in there?

Shows up in iptables now:

But still doesn't seem to forward traffic.

I got it working manually in iptables using

Code: [Select]
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 33892 -j DNAT --to 192.168.80.252:3389
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -d 192.168.80.252 --dport 3389 -j ACCEPT
Seems that the required FORWARD chain rule does not get created (even though it is created in webadmin). Also seems that

should be

It's not. I'll have to wait till I get home to get you the output of that command, but I did run it last night and noticed that the forward rule was missing. When created the forward rule manually via the iptables command from my last post, it started working.
