Connlimit

Connlimit

[Michał Margula]

Hello!

	Using latest patch-o-matic and 2.4.25 i have following problem when 'make 
modules':

ipt_connlimit.c: In function `init':
ipt_connlimit.c:219: `ip_conntrack_module' undeclared (first use in this 
function)
ipt_connlimit.c:219: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
ipt_connlimit.c:219: for each function it appears in.)
ipt_connlimit.c:220: warning: value computed is not used
ipt_connlimit.c: In function `fini':
ipt_connlimit.c:227: `ip_conntrack_module' undeclared (first use in this 
function)
ipt_connlimit.c:228: warning: value computed is not used
make[2]: *** [ipt_connlimit.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.25/net/ipv4/netfilter'
make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_ipv4/netfilter] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.25/net'
make: *** [_mod_net] Error 2

It is caused when I choose connlimit as a module. Whats wrong?

Using p-o-m-ng solved that issue.

2 -j REJECT
iptables -p tcp --syn --dport 25 -m connlimit --connlimit-above 2 -j REJECT

Re: CONNLIMIT

[Rio Martin.]

Try using -j DROP instead of -j REJECT
And the last rule seemed to ACCEPT all of those rules you ve applied before.
Remove it.

connlimit

[php0t]

  Dear developers,

I've had a nice time trying to limit connections. The kernel is
2.6.17.8.
Apart from the first couple of annoyances (such as the patch being
renamed from iplimit to connlimit, patch-o-matic not being able to apply
it to the current kernel etc), I've managed to patch manually, compile
it as a module and load it.

  However, when I try to add an according test rule, I get the 'Invalid
argument' error, and dmesg says:
ip_tables: connlimit match: invalid size 0 != 16

I also tried going to the site mentioned in the latest pom-ng's
source.list:

# ipp2p, time, IPMARK and connlimit maintained by Krzysztof Oledzki
<ole@ans.pl>
http://people.netfilter.org/ole/pom/

But all I get is a smiley :)

When I google for my current problem, most suggest that connlimit is
out-of-date, nobody cares about it any more, etc.

As I'm no C coder, my two questions are,
1) what could I do  to make this work ? Are there any similar modules
available that are stable?
2) could it be possible to stabilize this patch and have it added to the
kernel source? There are so many iptables extensions and modules by
default that are probably rarely used, why is this (IMHO very basic)
feature excluded?

  Thanks for reading and any replies
P.

Next time try searching the netfilter archives directly.

Just do what it says: "Please use "./runme --download" from a recent
pom-ng." :)

That will download the patches for you.

This is the new message which I placed few hours ago, after the first 
mail. Now everyone should know what to do. :)

connlimit

[Martin Schiøtz]

Hi

Just installed Fedora Core 6 with:
  kernel-2.6.18-1.2869.fc6
  iptables-1.3.5-1.2.1

I want to use connlimit on a bridge (eth0 and eth1) but it gives me this error:
iptables: Unknown error 4294967295

It looks like connlimit is included in iptables
(/lib/iptables/libipt_connlimit.so) but as remember I also need
'ipt_connlimt.ko' module in the kernel. In older days I think I
compiled the kernel with:
CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_LIMIT=m

But when I look at the kernel config for kernel-2.6.18-1.2869.fc6 I
see something like:
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_LIMIT=m

This is something about xtables - what is xtables?

Which module(s) do I need if I want to use 'connlimit'?

Do I need to patch with patch-o-matic?

:-)

[Carlos Miranda]

After downloading patch-o-matic-20031219.tar.bz2 and running "# KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.18/linux-2.6.18.i586 ./runme pending", I could not see CONNLIMIT module to path the kernel.

anyone to tell with patch need to be installed to have connlimit working?

Thank you,
Carlos

Had the same problem but discovered that you have to do:

 [root@shaper10 patch-o-matic-ng-20070108]# ./runme --download
Successfully downloaded external patch geoip
Successfully downloaded external patch condition
Successfully downloaded external patch IPMARK
Successfully downloaded external patch connlimit
Successfully downloaded external patch ipp2p
Successfully downloaded external patch time

etc.

The OS value is suboptimal, since the 5.x series's kernel and iptables 
is old and ships a broken connlimit.

connlimit is working on per second basis or..........?

The well-known version of xt_connlimit (as present in Linux 2.6.23 and 
onwards) supports groups of subnet prefixes of src addresses, and counts 
the _number of connections_. For _rates_, see xt_hashlimit and/or 
xt_rateest.
xt_connlimit in Linux 2.6.39 will support dstaddr matching.
