Hmm...you do not appear to have a blanket accept for your internal interface. What services are supposed to be open to the
internal lan?
Really just intersted in web, ftp and maybe samba
Well, the rules do accept connections for them three so no problem here.
Not really relying on my server for dns for the local
machines, just
for local services, ftp, webmin, local web. I'm not on a commercial account with my isp so 'external' mail is not an issue.
ftp is not running, webmin is blocked. You should be able to connect to apache. samba is not running either.
ftp is turned off. Samba, I thought was running but haven't tried to set it up as I was more interested in just accessing web services, locally.
I have most services turned off but can activate them ,
remotely, from
webmin if I need ssh or ftp.
Well, I guess you first need to allow connections to webmin (from INSIDE
- even if you are absolutely certain no one can guess your
password) unless you are only going to do it from the desktop on the box. No rules for ssh so you will need to add them if you do enable ssh.
I can ssh in remotely but don't have a need for it locally. I can access webmin remotely but not from a local machine. I see no need for my server to use additional resources for the x window environment. I don't use webmin that much except when I need to turn a service on or off remotely or want to upload a file to the server without having to turn of ftp.
