iptables PREROUTING on ISPC3 and OpenVZ

[eko_taas]

Hi,

System: Debian Squeeze (node+VMs) + OpenVZ + 2xISPC3 (3.0.4.6, one VM-node and ISPC3 others) close to HowTos
http://www.howtoforge.com/installing...g-3-debian-6.0
http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-mu...th-ispconfig-3
(all with default ports)
All good on intranet... but.....

Long time back I started to use Pre-routing for external ports to have 2+ (physical) machines running under same IP:
http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55180

Now I have tried to replicate idea to VMs, but phasing interesting problem - OpenVZ seems to forward my request to wrong IP (always node).

- ADSL-Router Port forward
5000-5099 => 192.168.xxx.1 (node)
5100-5199 => 192.168.xxx.2 (1st VM for ISPC3)
etc.

My idea was to Pre-route ports to original at high level (Node Firewall pre-chain), so I added to Node's firewall /etc/Bastille/firewall.d/pre-chain-split.sh test rules as root:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5002 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 22
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5003 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8080
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5102 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 22
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5103 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8080

and then restarted firewall

/etc/init.d/bastille-firewall restart

Now on client, all OK with

ssh -p 5002 nodeuser@example.com

but when

ssh -p 5102 serveruser@example.com

no success. but I changing user name

ssh -p 5102 nodeuser@example.com

i.e. I logged in to Node, not to Server

Same for ISPConfig3-console, all https://example.com:5103 (ment for Server goes to Node).

I tried to look into OpenVZ-wiki, but could not find yet Pre-routing advice
http://wiki.openvz.org/Setting_up_an_iptables_firewall
Also if I go ahead with "Setting up a HN-based firewall"-way, any special things I have to consider due ISPC3? Obviously VM-conf:s have to be cerated manually (which I wanted to avoid by using above shortcut).

[till]

any special things I have to consider due ISPC3?

No, ispconfig does not setup or manage iptables except of the bastille firewall script which is a simpleport based firewall (and is disabled by default) and fail2ban which uses iptables to block attacks.

Getting bit desperate, have tried to look thru several HowTo with google, but most of the talking about CTs without IP (which I have, but only one public-IP, thus redirect needed to use several servers for same (isolated) service)

e.g. http://www.linuxweblog.com/blogs/san...nvz-containers
(instead of "/etc/sysconfig/vz" edited "/etc/vz/vz.conf" with similar line
Also OpenVZ wiki looked thru....

Now (even if I tried to return all to org), pre-chain-split.sh does not forward eveno to node

ssh -p 5002 nodeuser@example.com

Has anyone found good HowTo / wiki to solve this? Any help would be appreciated...
