How do I configure my firewall to accept nmblookup data?

I'd like to have my firewall allow nmblookup data so that I can view the systems in my domain located in the Shared section of Finder. Currently I'm forced to disable the Firewall which doesn't protect my machine by default when it leaves our corporate HQ. My question is if there's an easy way to enable this one rule without hacking up conf files or a way to have the firewall determine based on what network it's connected to whether to enable itself or not.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read this post.

You can use ipfw tool in command line and add only the network you want to protect, or enable the firewall in the preferences pane and add a new rule to check in some networks (ip address based) but allow the others.

How do I Configure my Router to forward incoming data for port x ???

How do I configure my router to forward incoming data for port whatever?
I need this for my video games.

Depending on which router you have look under Gaming and Applications or system management for a Forwarding tab. From there you select (or create) the port needed for your game with the IP address to the PC with the games you are using. You may also have to configure Port Triggering for that game/port range/and IP to the hosting PC.

How can I configure Lion server to accept inbound VPN (L2TP) connections while connected as client to another vpn service?

I have what I believe to be a unique need;
I have a MacPro (1,1) running Lion with Server app.
I require that this particular machine be connected as a client to a VPN server, while at the same time acting as a VPN server for my network.
The PPTP connection configuration is such that "Send all traffic over VPN connection" is checked.
If PPTP client is NOT connected, I can connect to Lion as VPN server. As soon as I make the connection from Lion as a client, I can no longer
connect to Lion VPN server.
I understand this is because I am forcing all traffic out the virtual interface (tun0) and eth0 is no longer listening on the local network.
1. Is it possible to bind the VPN client (on Lion Server) to a particular interface? If I could tell the PPTP client to only use eth1 as the interface of choice, my assumption would be that eth0 would then be free to accept incoming connections.
2. Is it possible to bind the VPN service (on Lion Server) to a particular interface? if I could tell the vpn serviec to only listen on eth1, and in turn tell the PPTP client to NOT communicate on eth1 but only eth0 then perhaps I could separate the communications?
In my head, it seems as though both of the above options would be required in order to use Lion as both a VPN server and VPN client
Any and all help appreciated.

This is a standard facet of most VPNs - the problem lies in your NAT router since both clients appear to come from the same IP address as far as the VPN server is concerned, and the router can't separate out the traffic.
There are a couple of solutions.
First, the built-in VPN server supports L2TP and PPTP protocols. You should be able to connect one system under each protocol, so that gets your two machines connected.
Second, you can replace your NAT router with one that supports multiple VPN clients (often termed 'VPN passthrough').
Third, setup a site-to-site tunnel so that your entire LAN is connected to the VPN (this saves you from having to run a separate VPN client on each machine, but is typically only worth it when you have more machines).

I downloaded Firefox but can't open it. I keep getting "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading" message. If it's a firewall issue, how do I change my firewall to accept Firefox?

I have used Firefox for a number of years but some time ago I got a virus on my computer. I loaded eset nod32, removed the virus and cleaned the old files etc. using ccleaner.com. Now I keep getting the "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading" message and I haven't been able to use firefox since then. I have uninstalled and re-installed it several times with no avail. I suspect there is something in my windows frrewall stopping it.

If you want to check the Firewall, follow this-
1. Click Start Menu > Control Panel > Security Center.
2. Under the "Manage security settings for" click Windows Firewall.
3. On the Exceptions tab, do one of the following-
1. If Mozilla Firefox Firefox is there in the list, make sure it's checked.
2. If Mozilla Firefox is not there, close the Windows Firewall window.

4402 anchor in DMZ, how to configure the Firewall

Hello,
I am not sure if there is a document or thread on this topic aleady though I have been looking.
We have a 5508 foreign controller
We have a 4402 anchor controller
We have a DMZ layer 2 only switch
We have a ASA5520 firewall
I have configured both WLC controllers for guest wireless to the DMZ. They see each other in the mobility group.
I have added vlan800 (arbitrary vlan we chose) in the DMZ switch. Currently is does not have any ip address on it and we would prefer if it stays that way.
We want the anchor to also provide the dhcp scope for all guest wireless which is why we created vlan800 on the DMZ switch as well as in the Anchor controller.
The Anchor controller vlan800 has an ip address 172.18.1.2/24.
The guest wireless network is 172.18.1.x/24 (again, provided by the anchor controller).
My firewall has a DMZ address of 172.16.67.1/24
Ok here is where I get more fuzzy, How do i configure my firewall to accept traffic from the new ip scope i created?
The firewall does not have anymore free physical ports so I think I have to somehow make the existing physical DMZ interface a trunk or give it a secondary ip address of 172.18.1.1/24 to become the gateway for the guest wireless traffic. (besides setting up the allow/deny rules for internet access in the firewall).
I have not been able to find a document that goes into the DMZ requirements for wireless so far.
Thanks!

Hi Dennis,
Yes I have gotten the two controllers talking to one another and able to do both ping test eping and the other one (i forget the name).
I do believe I have a working understanding of the anchor to foreign controller configuration.
My question is specific in as much as it relates to the DMZ switch and firewall.
The configuration of the DMZ switch and firewall is the documentation I am unable to locate with examples of this configuration.
I cannot seem to get to any link that has the word "partner" in it even though I log into my cisco account.
If there is a different link I would be happy to check it out.
As for your question about trunking the port, can you clarify which device your speaking of?
I have the DMZ switch port trunked that connects to the Anchor controller.
Thanks

How will i configure partner determination for customer master

how will i configure partner determination for customer master data.

hi
Check this
BUSINESS PARTNERS AND PARTNER DETERMINATION
In the partner determination procedure you can determine whether partner functions can or should occur in a partner object (Customer Master, Sales Document, Item Category etc.) For each object, in which partner function can be created, you can define partner procedures. This also means that
For Customer Master
For Sales Documents
For Sales Documents and Billing Documents: for items
We can define our partner determination procedure for each of these levels as shown below. In Blue are given the ones wherein the Partner Procedures are assigned to the Partner Objects
Customer Master Account Group
Sales Document Header Sales Document Type
Sales document Item Item Category in sales
Delivery Delivery Type
Billing Header Billing Type
Billing Item Billing Type
Sales Activity Sales Activity type
By assigning a procedure you determine for which account groups (for the customer master), which sales document types (for sales documents) and for which item categories this procedure would be valid.
In the partner determination procedure you can determine for each partner function
whether the partner function is an obligatory partner function
whether the partner function can be changed in the document
BUSINESS PARTNER FUNCTION
By assigning a business partner function to a partner you can determine which functions the partner fulfils in the business process. Partner Functions are classified using partner type. The partner type represents the roles played by the business partner within the business transaction.
Following partner functions exist in the standard process of Sales and Distribution
Partner Type Customer
Sold-to Party, Ship-to Party, Bill-to Party, Payer and Sold-to Party authorized to release against a contract. You can define the sold-to party authorized to release against a contract in the partner screen of a contract. This partner may only schedule orders with reference to this contract, even when he is not the sold-to party authorized against a contract.
Partner Type Contact Person
Contact persons are natural persons whom you must contact at the customers for business processing (e.g. purchasers) Contact person can be created directly in customer master record.
Partner Type Vendor
A forwarding agent is an example of a business partner on the credit side, who is included in a sales process. If you commission a particular forwarding agent for deliveries to a specific customer, you can define the forwarding agent in the customer master record as the partner.
The other possible partner functions on the credit side in the sale process are interpreters, auditors etc. The forwarding agent is an agent who performs transportation services. This includes organizing the shipment, delivery and receipt of the goods, arranging the carrier services and handling the customs issues.
Partner Type Personnel
Employee Responsible
Sales Personnel
You can enter an employee from your firm as the person responsible:
In the Customer Master If the employee is normally responsible for processing transactions with this customer.
In the Sales Document If the employee is responsible for processing the Business Transaction.
STEP WISE PROCESS FOR PARTNER DETERMINATION PROCEDURE
Sales and Distribution->Basic Functions->Partner Determination->set Up Partner Determination->Set up Partner Determination for Customer Master.
First go to OVT0 create customer account groups. Here you make new entries, click whether it is a one time customer, description. Also you can do the field selection here for general data, co. code data and sales area data.
Now go to IMG logistics general business partner customers control define & assign customer number ranges define the number. Here you range that you want and assign it to your customer account group.
Now go to VOPA here the selection will be on customer master, click on partner procedures, create the partner determination procedure. The following steps need to be done in partner determination area
Assign partner function to account group i.e SP,SH, BP, PY to account group (debit side ). Sales and Distribution->Basic Functions->Partner Determination->Assign Partner Functions on the debit side to account Groups.
Then create Partner Determination Procedure.
Assign the Partner Determination Procedure to Partner Function.
Then finally assign the Partner Determination Procedure to acc group.
Important Points in Business Partners and Partner Determination Procedure
Partner relationship maintained/defined in the customer master is proposed automatically in the document header when you create a sales document.
In customizing we can decide whether several partners can be assigned to one partner function in the customer master.
In sales documents, the system is configured so that only one partner can be assigned to each partner function.
We can define partners at item level in the sales documents.
Business Partners that are defined at the header level however cannot be changed at the item level.
You can prohibit anyone from changing a partner that has already been entered in a sales document.
It is also possible to manually change or enter the address of a partner, such as the Ship-to Party. This change does not affect the master record.

How do I configure my Airport Extreme firewall?

I seem to remeber configuring a firewall on my Airpot Extreme/Time Capsule when I first set it up. How do I get into it again to check the configuration settings - The Airport Utility does seem to provide a way in.

There is no "firewall configuration" on the AirPort Extreme. It provides a NAT firewall but this automatically closes all ports apart from the ones you choose to open.

How do you configure the set of port to use for FTP passive data connection

I was able to start the ftp server xml db and connect to it locally. When I tried to connect to it from home, I was able to log in but when i do a "get" command the sessions hangs. I also tried passive mode and do a "get" command and it gives me a connection refused error. I am using the default port 2100. I think this might be a firewall issue with the data connection port. I am not sure which range of ports to open for the passive ftp connection on the server side or where to go and set them for for the ftp server to use? Or this issue might not be firewall related??? Any thoughts. Thanks.

This is a typical problem with VPN/Firewall software and FTP on ports other than 21.
When you open the FTP data connection the FTP Server identifies which port the data will be sent on using the PORT command which is sent on the command port (typically 21 with a normal FTP server, 2100 by default with XDB). THe client then opens that PORT to accept the data (file, output of an ls etc).
As I understand it most VPN/Firewall are configured to monitor 21 for 'PORT' requests. They then understand to allow connection on the PORT number passed on the command PORT. Hence with Port 21 firewall / VPN software is not a problem. However since the XDB command PORT is something other than 21 they do not see / honour the PORT commands from the server and hence the client cannot open the data connection on the specified PORT
As to how to solve it, I wish I knew (After 5 years I still can't use XDB FTP from home to a machine in the office once the VPN tunnel is open :( ). I'm sure it's going to be firewall / VPN software specific and may need the VPN servers to be configured.
The best bet would be to run the FTP server on 21...
Add the following line to your listener.ora file
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = hostname) (PORT = 21))
(PROTOCOL_STACK = (PRESENTATION = FTP) (SESSION = RAW)))
and then restart the listener as root
Start the listener as root.
At the operating system prompt, enter tnslsnr with optional command line arguments. The usage is as follows:
tnslsnr [listener_name] [-user user] [-group group]
where:
Table 4-3 tnslsnr Utility Options
Option Description
listener_name
Specify the name of the listener. If omitted, the default name LISTENER will be used.
-user user
Specify the user whose privileges the listener will use when super user (root) privileges are not needed. After performing the privileged operations, the listener will give up root privileges irreversibly.
-group group
Specify the group whose privileges the listener will use when super user (root) group privileges are not needed. After performing the privileged operations, the listener will give up root group privileges irreversibly.
The listener will temporarily switch to the provided user and group immediately after startup. All subsequent operations will be done with the specified user and group privileges, except the system calls necessary to listen on configured endpoints. The listener will revert to super user (root) for a short period of time to listen on reserved addresses, such as TCP ports less than 1024. After the listener starts listening on all of its endpoints configured in listener.ora, it will switch to the specified user and group irreversibly. Therefore, the listener will give up the root privilege that it initially had. In the current release, -user and -group command line arguments only accept user and group identifiers specified in numeric form.
For example, to execute a root listener called mylsnr and have it use privileges of a user identified

How-do-i-configure-guest-wifi-access-using-2504-wlc-fortigate-utm-l3-device

Dear All
I have a 2504 Wireless Controller with multiple radios attached. I currently have a "private" WLAN configured (taking ip from windows server based DHCP of Range 192.1681.0/24 ) and working, but I need to add a Guest/Public WLAN which should take the IP from Other DHCP Configured on Fortigate UTM of range 172.16.0.0/24.
We have one SG300 switch in the office and the rest are basic switches.
Our firewall/router is a Fortigate UTM 240D
Find the attached network diagram for the issue.
Is there a SIMPLE way to enabling guest access that doesn't require VLANS (or are VLANS easier than I'm making them)?
Thanks.

We have two iphones and only one ipad. We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones, which have separate apple ids. How do we get our ipad to accept this?

We have two iphones and only one ipad - no mac. We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones. How do we get the ipad to accept two iphone accounts? icloud is enabled on all three devices.

Also, be aware of the following:
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. Something as small as an iPod/iPhone should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

How do I configure a deployed webapp (war) for access without port numbers

Using WLS 11g.
Have created a managed server called "DeplymentServer". This managed server is listening on port 9005.
I have deployed a war, webapp, and selected the DeploymentServer as its "target".
The war file was originally on our 10g OAS and deployed as OC4J and I made no changes to prior to deploying to our 11g Weblogic installation.
On 10g we used to be able to call the webapp directly from one of our webpage like this:
https://cxxxxx.nswc.navy.mil/wizardapp/wizard?REQUEST=Change_Request_Form
Now on 11g I have to remove the "s" from https and include the port. So now my url looks like this
http://cxxxxx.nswc.navy.mil:9005/wizardapp/wizard?REQUEST=Change_Request_Form
I am currently testing this behind a firewall so http will work here as will the port, but when we go live these won't.
My questions are:
1) Is there a way to configure the webapp deployment or the managed server, so I don't have to include the port number to access my deployment?
2) How to I configure so I don't have to remove the s from https.
At the moment question 1 is more pressing.
I think If I can get question 1 squared away question 2 may get corrected as well.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Steve.

Hi Steve,
Port 443 is the default HTTPS listen port for Servers...so to access an application using : https://cxxxxx.nswc.navy.mil/wizardapp/wizard?REQUEST=Change_Request_Form .... You were not needed to provide the 443 protocol in the URL because ur Server (Or the frontend proxy) was also listening on 443 SSL port.
Now as u want to use HTTP Protocol...(Port 80 is the default HTTP listen port so it will not be visible in the URL)... So you have 2 options now:
Option-1). Either u change the Server Port to 80 (Server in which ur Application is deployed) so that the Port will not be visible on the URL.
Option 2). Install a WebProxy (on Port 80 infront of the WebLogic Server)...and by pass the requests to the WLS through the Proxy. like: http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/05/13/apache-proxy-as-static-content-repository/

I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes.

I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes. (Firefox 5.0)

@dmcritchie:
''How do you expect to keep cookies for certain sites, if you wipe out all of your cookies when the session ends or you clear the same history through the Tools menu''
If you mean from session-to-session, I don't expect it to keep cookies. That's the whole point. Every time Firefox is opened, I want it to write a new cookie, and keep that cookie until it closes and no longer than that. (Perhaps I should clarify: I don't mean session in the networking sense but rather in the period of time when one starts using Firefox until Firefox closes.) The behavior I want is for it to be able to write cookies when open, but only for specific sites, and then forget about them on close.
I should also mention that your responses are worthless to me because you don't explain anything. For instance, the quote above is ''not'' obvious from your reply of "Make sure you are not clearing cookies". You need to explain this; what is obvious in a reading for you is not obvious for everyone.
Furthermore, how is "Site Preferences" related to "everything on the right-side"? (Not to mention that it's unclear what you mean by "right-side.")
