Nas4Free behind pfsense

jahonix

no i was asking you what is local user access?

Are you sure this is not over-your-head at the moment? Start small, tinker with your setup and get used to how pfSense works. Then you can configure it reasonably without shooting yourself in the foot.
Put "learn OpenVPN configuration" on your to-do list as well.

I am looking a guide to do configure a DVR behind pfsense?

I tried several attempts port forward but no luck.

I am now trying to build a openVPN but i have few questions.

1.) I have static public ip where should I put that static IP? though already configured on WAN
2.) should I need to port forward even in openVPN?

how I am going to access DVR remotely?
Thanks in advance

johnpoz

you wouldn't put it anywhere in openvpn..
No

You would access your dvr via its fqdn you resolve once you have connected to your vpn or via its IP address.

irs

i successfully completed openVPN but can only access firewall nothing else.

what wrong i am doing?

still can not access nas4free from remote login.
?

johnpoz

And do you have any firewall on your nas4free device that would limit access to the local network. And now your coming from your vpn network.

Can you ping the pfsense IP on the lan interface your nas4free is connected too? Do a traceroute from your vpnclient to the nas4free IP do you see the trace go down your tunnel? Did you place any firewall rules on your vpn connection..

irs

i can ping with pfsense the ip address of my nas4free but when ever i tried to ping from my remote computer it wont

irs

"Do a traceroute from your vpnclient to the nas4free IP do you see the trace go down your tunnel? Did you place any firewall rules on your vpn connection.."

How to traceroute? I can not see any traceroute command in vpnclient
i hav no firewall rules for vpn

@johnpoz:

And do you have any firewall on your nas4free device that would limit access to the local network.

From the NAS4Free release notes:

Login error 403
Do you have WebGUI Login error 403? Make shure the pc is in the same network! by default the System|General Setup Hosts allow field is empty so any one on the same network of LAN interface can access the WebGUI allowed. With a space delimited set of IP or CIDR notation you can add computers from outer network. As an example the outer IP address and LAN address for remote access.

how I can figure out the error?

johnpoz

Do you get the 403 error.. Then biggsy already pointed you to the problem..

As to your traceroute.. you got something wrong there.. Do the traceroute to the IP you can ping?

Here is a normal traceroute through a vpn tunnel


C:\>tracert -d 192.168.9.100

Tracing route to 192.168.9.100 over a maximum of 30 hops

  1    93 ms    92 ms    96 ms  10.0.8.1
  2   105 ms   100 ms    97 ms  192.168.9.100

Trace complete.

I hit the end of the tunnel (pfsense) then I hit the client.

What network behind pfsense, your local network. What is your tunnel network, what is the local network your on when your connecting into the vpn.

So for example my box I am on now is

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : snipped.com
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.56.153.210
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.56.153.1

My vpn interface
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2:

Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

Here is my route table when connected to vpn

Well this says vpn is working

So your issue is on your nas box – most likely the firewall as already pointed out multiple times!

irs

thanks for your help.

Firewall?
inside my Nas4free firewall is not checked it is not configured.

@irs:

NAS4FREE 192.168.0.250 port 12000

In the very first post of the thread you say that the NAS4Free is on the OPT1 interface.

Now you're saying NAS4Free have the address 192.168.0.250.

Have you moved the NAS4Free to the LAN interface now?

irs

Actually it was beginning as i am new i wast knew many things than suggested in this post to protect well must do that on openvpn.

so now I am on openvpn but still am unable to access my nas4free from remote on openvpn.?

I hope explain it well?

P3R

Is NAS4Free connected to the LAN network 192.168.0.0/24?

Does it have the address 192.168.0.250/24?

irs

yes my nas4free is connected to my pfsense network address 192.168.0.0/24
and my NAS4FREE ip is 192.168.0.250
my DVR is also connected on the same network 192.168.0.137
and I am able to use it with that local network

my openvpn is connected on tunnel 10.0.7.0/24

my remote ip 192.168.10.0/24 windows machine

I can connect owncloud locally but can not connect through vpn.

Go to System, General, WebGUI, Hosts allow in NAS4Free admin GUI.

If you have only 192.168.0.0/24 configured there, change it to 192.168.0.0/24 192.168.10.0/24

Also in NAS4Free admin GUI:

Check that on Network, LAN Management, IP address you have the network set to /24

Check that you have Network, LAN Management, Gateway set to whatever address your pfsense have on it's LAN interface (in your first post it was 192.168.0.1).
