Hi all, I'm running a CentOS 5.2 server with a FC8 xen domU guest, and an irc server on the FC8 domU guest. For some odd reason, I can't access the irc server on the xen domU guest. >From FC8, when I run netstat -a, I can see irc is listening: netstat -a Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 *:ircd *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:6668 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:6669 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 192.168.10.:afs3-fileserver *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 localhost.localdomain:smtp *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 192.168.10.13:ftp 196-209-84-62-tpr-esr:49615 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN and running nmap on the localhost looks promising as well: netstat -a Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 *:ircd *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:6668 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:6669 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 196.34.136.:afs3-fileserver *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 localhost.localdomain:smtp *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 196.34.136.55:ftp 196-209-84-62-tpr-esr:49615 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN Yet, from the outside (either from another PC, or the dom0 itself), I can't connect to the irc ports. I've even disabled iptables on the dom0 altogether, but stil can't connect to it. The only open ports are: PORT STATE SERVICE 80/tcp open http 443/tcp closed https 7001/tcp closed afs3-callback 8000/tcp closed http-alt 8080/tcp closed http-proxy 8081/tcp closed blackice-icecap How do I get this to work? P.S. Sorry for the cross-post, for those of you who are on the centos-virt list as well, I just find that this list is being used more. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
