How to adopt iptables with no connection to Internet?

zaozao · 2006-05-16 11:40:18

Hi!

I have base Arch installation. I need package containing iptables. I do not want to connect my Arch base system to Internet (I really have the reason for this).

I want to download the package by other OS then put it on CD or on my own WEB and then get it in Arch.

Thank you!

Just download it from FTP, put the package on a USB stick and pacman -U the file from the system without internet connection.

BTW: Why do you need iptables without an internet connection?

I can't think of a reason for this. Anyway, here is the link:

]$ pacman -Sp iptables
ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/current/os/i686/iptables-1.3.5-2.pkg.tar.gz

Hackers are all around.

I use only two subnets they are belonging to Internet and I have time a little before hackers come to the subnets.

Thank you for your attention with my post!

You still owe me an answer: Would don't you want to connect your Arch box to the Internet?

The first answer is for the truth I really want to have in mind no hackers touch the system.

Previously, I have run the service on the system and open to whole Internet and have unwanted traffic and maybe attacks. Now my IP address is circulated all over the world. At the moment I open the door unwanted traffic will come back and maybe intruders (in the net many guys who feel funny themselves when they hacked some personal systems (I do not have funds to invest in investigation)).

Now I reinstall all the system and connected to the subnets I may access physically people from.

And I want more security with iptables to prevent myself to reinstall the system in the future at all.

Thank you!

May I ask you off topic question?

I have run WEB on 2003 server and have add route like:

route add 60.60.137.0 255.255.248.0 10.10.10.1

route print:

60.60.137.0 255.255.248.0 10.10.10.1

after some time left I can see with route print:

60.60.137.0 255.255.248.0 10.10.10.1
60.60.138.12 255.255.255.255 10.10.10.1

What does it mean? The 60.60.138.12 disappears some time and comes back again. What is the mystery? (I do not want believe some one get access in my system) And 60.60.138.12 is included in 60.60.137.0/255.255.248.0 already!!! What is it?

Man, get real. If you don't have any vulnerable services running on your system (check 'netstat -tulp' and the DAEMONS entry in /etc/rc.conf), then there's no possibility whatsoever to get 'hacked'.
