Re: virtual honeynet, not accessible from outside, only from host

Hello Kai,

Setting up the VMWare interfaces on Linux can be tricky.  Have you
attempted to run tcpdump on the external interface of the honeywall?
If traffic from the outside is not reaching the external interface on
the honeywall then there is most likely a problem with your interface
configuration in VMWare.

The HwMANAGER configuration variable controls the IP's that are
allowed to connect to the honeywall's management interface.  It does
not affect traffic heading into or out of the Honeynet.

Good Luck,
george

Hi,

I have a roo config problem, my setup is like that:
http://www.honeynet.org.es/reports/diagram.png

My host is linux (debian 3.1) with VMware Server, my honeypots are Win2k and RedHat 7.0.

But all virtual machines are not accessible from the outside world, only from the host.
The VMware configuration is fine, so it must be a honeywall config error.

it has probably something to do with HwMANAGER (can post any other config information, too):

[root@honeywall ~]# hwctl -n HwMANAGER
any/0

("any" gave iptables errors and setting ips didn't work either)


I am really thankful for any help since this is for a little project at college.

Thanks

Kai
