iptables problem

[BigCityCat]

I started ufw with sudo ufw enable and immediately I started having problems. I can not use citrix anymore and Firefox takes forever to close. I disabled ufw and restarted. Problem persists.

I ran firefox in the terminal.

This is all I got except for some gtk errors.

sh: /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/i386/linux/npviewer: not found

I'm not sure that this is an iptables or ufw issue to be honest. As far as citrix goes, citrix makes a lot of products, which are you referring to.

List of default ports for common citrix products can be found here


If the product is not working you may have to allow traffic to it in ufw

sudo ufw allow from any to $yourip port $portnumber proto tcp

Hope that helps.

All I know is that as soon as I turned on the firewall my browser started acting up and citrix which had worked with no problems stopped working. I disabled the firewall and the problem remains. It had to change a setting and is having some residual effect but I have no idea what it could be.

For future reference try to ask the questions in public so that they may help others who have the same issues. However the syntax for the command you wanted would be.

 
sudo ufw allow from any to 127.31.214.61 port 80,443 proto tcp

Where 127.31.214.61 is your ip ports 80 and 443 are the ports you want opened and the protocol is tcp.

hope this helps.

Thanks wasn't sure if I should openly post my ip. Even though I know that it is readily available if someone wants to see it.

[BigCityCat]

Okay that had to be the issue because it is working now. I did allow a few more ports off that pdf list you gave me but it is working and no more problems with the browser closing.

Thanks a lot.

Should have mentioned that this was with citrix reciever/xenapp.

Glad it all worked out.

EDIT: Just so everyone knows. The ip I used 127.31.214.61 is a loopback address, I used it to demonstrate where the IP address would be, the OP originally had sent me a PM with his actual IP.

For amusement purposes : 127.anything is loop back.
