Did you bother to check to see whether or not my suggestion helped at all?

Repeating the same exact thing without supplying any additional information isn't going to get you anywhere.

You can restrict connections to it in the "Source" column when you define the new rule allowing specific IP addresses (public or internal) to connect to the specific port.

The manual should have directions for backing it up. It depends on the manufacturer, but most if not all of them have a menu option to backup the config, once you're able to access (login) to it.

If I read what you posted correctly (this is a large assumption on my part), you're explaining how to either do some kind of portscan of the box or do a DNS lookup on the domain (I can't figure out...

Are the images in a publicly-accessible directory, or outside the docroot?

root 14653 1 0 Dec09 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/sshd


That's the sshd process itself, running as root, not root being logged in to an SSH session (notice it's sshd, not ssh@)

man sshd

Yup, I know the difference, but the way you originally worded it made me unsure of whether or not you understood the differences yourself.

(Incidentally, I thought the answer you got from the VNC...

Didn't know about that, but then again, I haven't used iptables (or Linux, for that matter) in years. I'd say go for it and see what happens :)

What did you use to generate that?

As far as creating functions, I'd suggest consulting the manpage for iptables. I haven't used iptables in about 10 years, and my *BSD boxen use pf, so I can't...

After reading your posts in this forum and others, it's wonderful how you became an expert on this subject in so little time. It seems like just yesterday (maybe because it was?) you were a n00b...

If it doesn't listen on localhost, it won't work.

Secondly, use iptables to allow/deny connections on a different interface if you don't want to allow connections to a specific interface.

FYI,...

Can you paste some examples of this "bloating" and "code duplication"? If there's duplicate rules defined in different areas, it shouldn't be too difficult to spot them and help you get them cleaned...

It means the process itself is running as root, which is required for sshd to function properly.

I read the full thread completely, a few times, actually. It appears that you still don't fully understand PKI, since you keep mention "signing" when you mean "exchange."

The EXCHANGE occurs...

Why add additional things to confuse them? The OP doesn't even know what a keylogger is, I doubt they'd know what a proxy is (no offense to the OP.)

And by the way, as far as your comment about Gmail not caring, you should really learn how something works before you make snide comments to people who know more than you and are trying to help you. ...

Not true by any stretch.

Not to be rude (hey, I'm in a good mood this morning :) but I don't think you have a clue about how this works, based on your posts in the pfsense forum...

So why is it "bad news for hackers"?

You can't have two machines with the same name on the same network.
