Re: [ANL-IT-ARG #54605] Fwd: Firewall request for LWFW
by rackow＠anl.gov 15 Oct '10

When it comes to port 25, email, it's better to run that through the ironports we have to deal with filtering first. Do you really need them open from the outside, or just from ANL hosts. Note the MX records on MCS mail servers points to the ironports, so the only thing you should be seeing incoming from outside are broken clients and spammers. I don't see anything currently listed as living on the 140.221.15 subnet. Is this going to be replacing where all the current MCS web servers are currently or something else?

Fwd: Firewall request for LWFW
by Schmitz Corby 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

I need to do a bulk firewall request as per Dan's note below. We would like the following ports opened: tcp/80,443 140.221.15.50-133 world accessible tcp/25 140.221.6.6-7, 140.221.7.6-7 (in and out bound) world accessible tcp and udp/111,1110,2049,4045 from all MCS networks udp/1812,1813 from all MCS and HPC networks (including LCF/BIO/KBT/ Cosmea/LCRC) What questions do we need to answer to make this happen. These IP addresses represent virtual address which point to a pair of RedHat service routers. They in turn point at a bunch of vhosts located in 221 and 240. All of the back-end hosts have conduits via other tickets currently, but are being moved behind service routers to provide an additional layer of redundancy. -corby Begin forwarded message: > From: dolson(a)mcs.anl.gov > Date: October 15, 2010 11:06:31 AM CDT > To: "Corby B.

CIS Update on Zimbra...
by Tina J. Stanton-Piersanti 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

Jim Dust just stopped my office to make sure we have been updated on the Zimbra status. I told him that Karl sent a message and we are updated as much as we could possibly be right now. He said to call him or Karl directly (I will not be forwarding with any complaints we get and they will try to explain to the user that we are at the Mercy of the ZIMBRA GODS to get this back up. No ETA in site as of yet. T.
