Default opendns

Hi All

I 've just edit the DNS settings of my ASG to use opendns (set as forwarders and untick "forwarders assigned by ISP"). However , I am now unable to access a specific client by RDP on the DMZ zone.I am able to share files and view the shared drives on that client.

It's not a IPS/ pf issue as I've checked both of them. I can't see anything on the logs indicating that the traffic is blogged

Could you please advice?

Are you trying to use RDP to the IP or the hostname?

Do you have an internal DNS server? If so, you can tell Astaro to use it, on the DNS request routing page.

I am using RDP to connect to the IP
I don't have an internal DNS server. It's strange cause when I was using my ISP's DNS by ticking the "isp forwaders" everything was working fine. Could it be something related to openDNS?

Just to confirm, when you run Desktop Connection, into the box for the 'Computer', you are putting a numeric IP address, not a name or FQDN?

yes. The connection is to 172.16.1.2. I press connect and instantaneously it drops (no error).

Barry, this sounds impossible to me. What could this be?

I just tried it today and indeed is not DNS is not related. I 've logged the relevant rule (allowing traffic from zone to DMZ ) and the following traffic is allowed:

Code:
20:00:10	Packetfilter rule #13	TCP	
192.168.2.31	:	10861
→	
172.16.1.2	:	3389
[SYN]	len=48	ttl=127	tos=0x00	srcmac=00:1f:d0:0a:9a:89
however, RDP still doesn't connect.I can't see any drops on the log. Interesting enough, IPS detects that as follows:

Code:
2009:06:07-20:00:09 Astaro barnyard[6591]: id="2101" severity="warn" sys="SecureNet" sub="ips" name="Intrusion protection alert" action="alert" reason="MISC MS Terminal server request" group="450" srcip="192.168.2.31" dstip="172.16.1.2" proto="6" srcport="10861" dstport="3389" sid="1448" class="Generic Protocol Command Decode" priority="3" generator="1" msgid="0"
2009:06:07-20:08:18 Astaro barnyard[6591]: id="2101" severity="warn" sys="SecureNet" sub="ips" name="Intrusion protection alert" action="alert" reason="MISC MS Terminal server request" group="450" srcip="192.168.2.31" dstip="172.16.1.2" proto="6" srcport="11227" dstport="3389" sid="1448" class="Generic Protocol Command Decode" priority="3" generator="1" msgid="0"
2009:06:07-20:08:20 Astaro barnyard[6591]: id="2101" severity="warn" sys="SecureNet" sub="ips" name="Intrusion protection alert" action="alert" reason="MISC MS Terminal server request" group="450" srcip="192.168.2.31" dstip="172.16.1.2" proto="6" srcport="11228" dstport="3389" sid="1448" class="Generic Protocol Command Decode" priority="3" generator="1" msgid="0"
2009:06:07-20:09:20 Astaro barnyard[6591]: id="2101" severity="warn" sys="SecureNet" sub="ips" name="Intrusion protection alert" action="alert" reason="MISC MS Terminal server request" group="450" srcip="192.168.2.31" dstip="172.16.1.2" proto="6" srcport="11248" dstport="3389" sid="1448" class="Generic Protocol Command Decode" priority="3" generator="1" msgid="0"
I've tried disabling the rule/ disabling IPS but same issue exists

I assume you're connecting from an internal LAN to an internal DMZ.

Try running tcpdump on both interfaces and see if the traffic is going through the firewall correctly.

Are you doing any NAT/MASQ between these two networks?

NAT/MASQ
--------------------
both zone 1 and DMZ point to WAN interface

I've attached the tcpdump for both interfaces. Eth1 is the Zone 1 interface so I've attached only the relevant log (tcp 3389 port).

you have to set the vpn exception side of opendns up for your ip address of the vpn server.
