FreeBSD 12.1 + EZ-Jail (Web Jail Configuration Problem!) #2

Hey there again! After getting the basic installation requirements for rc.conf with SirDice's assistance I proceeded to install my new jail to a STATIC IP (Public IP) and ran into a couple problems.

Code:
# ezjail-admin create apache1SYSorgPHP56 'lo1|127.0.0.1,em7|104.36.17.19'
Warning: Some services already seem to be listening on IP 127.0.0.1
  This may cause some confusion, here they are:

Thank you for a shuv in the right direction! :)
 
Hi
note that in the handbook the create jail command uses 127.0.1.1 and not 127.0.0.1 that you have used. That is what is causing the warnings about something else listening on the 127.0.0.1 addresses etc.
Code:
ezjail-admin create jailname 'lo1|127.0.1.1,em0|192.168.1.50'

The ultimate aim of jailing services/processes is to move all those services that are currently running on the Host into separate jails. The easiest way is to note that jails are typically created on private/internal network addresses. So 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x would be more typical ranges to use. You then use the host firewall to forward requests from the internet to the relevant internal jail IP address ranges for the services there to process.

So when creating jails this is typically done like this and avoids the issues with Host and Jails services listening on the same ip addr / port
Code:
# ezjail-admin create jailname1 'lo1|127.0.1.1,vtnet0|10.0.0.1'
# ezjail-admin create jailname2 'lo1|127.0.2.1,vtnet0|10.0.0.2'
etc.
which gives
Code:
# ezjail-admin list
DR  4    127.0.2.1       jailname2                      /usr/jails/jailname2
    4    vtnet0|10.0.0.2
DR  3  127.0.1.1       jailname1                      /usr/jails/jailname1
    3  vtnet0|10.0.0.1

anlashok,

Thank you for the clarification and examples. Very wonderful and makes a whole lot more sense to me!

Here I created the jail with the correct "127.0.1.1" and external NIC em7 w/ STATIC. This time it outputted nginx and named using all ports.

I disabled the NGINX and retried to get only named. I went into BIND 9.9 entries in /usr/local/etc/namedb/ and commented out all entries that pertained to 104.36.17.19

I hope this will mitigate the difficulty in the starting of this jail after a server reboot.

Best Regards,
 
Code:
# ezjail-admin create apache1SYSorgPHP56 'lo1|127.0.1.1,em7|104.36.17.19'

Note this:
So 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x would be more typical ranges to use. You then use the host firewall to forward requests from the internet to the relevant internal jail IP address ranges for the services there to process.

Use a private IP address in place of the public IP address here:
ezjail-admin create apache1SYSorgPHP56 'lo1|127.0.1.1,em7|104.36.17.19'

So delete and recreate the jail. Or go edit its config file in /use/local/etc/ezjail/apache1SYSorgPHP56.conf.
Get it running first before worrying about other services - bind etc.
 
I would suggest making sure that services running on the host are bound to the host's IP addresses specifically. The same should be done for any services running in jails. This will prevent a service from trying to grab all available IP addresses to bind on.

SirDice,

Thanks for that! I agree. I tried finding NGINX's; however it doesn't utilize an asterix.

NGINX --> nginx.conf displays:

Code:
   server {
        listen       81;
        server_name  sharpenyoursword.org;

        #charset koi8-r;

        #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;
        access_log logs/sharpenyoursword.org.access.log;
        location / {
           #root   /usr/local/www/nginx;
            root   /usr/local/www/nginx/sysorgmain/;
            index index.php index.html index.htm;
        }

and it's custom configuration file for the VHOST is 001_sharpenyoursword.org.conf which is on an include line on nginx.conf listening lines are:

Code:
server {

  listen 81;
  server_name sharpenyoursword.org; # Replace with your IP or hostname
  root /usr/local/www/nginx/sysorgmain/;
  index index.php index.html index.htm;

I am not sure how NGINX is grabbing all IP's with these 2 configuration files setup like they are. hmm... tough one!

I also do not know where named (BIND 9.9) is grabbing all IP's... those are also specifically set.

/usr/local/etc/namedb/named.conf listen lines are the following:

// If named is being used only as a local resolver, this is a safe default.
// For named to be accessible to the network, comment this option, specify
// the proper IP address, or delete this option.
listen-on { 127.0.0.1; 104.36.16.185; 104.36.16.37;};

// If you have IPv6 enabled on this system, uncomment this option for
// use as a local resolver. To give access to the network, specify
// an IPv6 address, or the keyword "any".
// listen-on-v6 { ::1; };


Could DNS entries attribute to binding? I don't see how though; it doesn't seem to make sense to me that a DNS entry for any domain on the server would attribute a binding variable.

NGINX and BIND were the only services that were being prompted when installing my first jail with ezjail-admin

If you don't specify an IP address in the listen definition it listens on all available addresses. applies to any service really, some use the *, some don't. Define both the ip address and the port to constrain it onto a single ip : port

nginx
Code:
server {
        listen       81;
        server_name  sharpenyoursword.org;
is interpreted as listen *:81 in Apache speak, eg listen on every IP address port 81.

You want to use
Code:
server {
        listen      104.36.17.19:81;
        server_name  sharpenyoursword.org;
i.e. nginx is only listening on 104.36.17.19 and only to port 81

anlashok,

ahhh. That's how it's done. I was wondering where to define the static IP.

:)
