Kanter" To: FreeBSD questions Subject: Portsentry problem Message-ID: <20000820073403.A15099@localhost.localdomain> Mail-Followup-To: FreeBSD questions Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.4i X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I installed portsentry but cannot get the stealth modes to work. Perhaps I've configured something wrong. When I start portsentry in tcp stealth mode, this is what my syslog registers: adminalert: Psionic PortSentry 1.0 is starting. securityalert: Psionic PortSentry is shutting down adminalert: Psionic PortSentry is shutting down Can portsentry not connect to an initial socket in order to run in stealth mode? I've got inetd turned off, maybe that's the reason? Or, is it that my hosts.deny is ALL : ALL? -- David Kanter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
