Router firewall issues.

[kato13]

I am having some issues with my router and setting up firewall rules.

There is a way I can get the forum up but there may be some outages as I progress through adjusting the settings.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Ok done with the adjustments for now.
Carry on

We did have an attempted hacking from the eastern Ukraine, but it was a clumsy brute force attack so our normal security handled it. That was not related to the changes I made thought. They were for additional functionality on my gaming/demo server.

I will probably have to reset the router to factory setting as it is still a bit wonky (it will take changes but will not show them in the summary). I will probably need a full day outage at some point in the future to reset the router, clean the server fans, rewire some stuff and perform a OS upgrade on this box.

Generally my goal would be to give a weeks notice, but if something else takes us down I might just do all that stuff at once. So if there is a longer than normal outage don't worry.

I would take this attempted hack into the forum as a warning, as stated in the article here:

http://www.theguardian.com/world/201...-cyber-attacks

NATO has already had attacks on it's public websites, thses have aimed at a denial of service (DDoS)

I supect that is a effort to control what information is spread about the Ukraine, I am thinking someone did a google search and the Ukranie fun and games thread popped up.

NATO said the attacks were foiled as they were very basic which would fit with what happened here.

I don't want to say to people don't talk about it, as I am a huge defender of free speach, but remember people are watching what is posted it.

In closing I would like to say hi to folks at the NSA and CSE
