XMPP Service Operators - 2021-03-28

Yeah, ufw. I also have fail2ban installed but haven't touched it.

So, now if I have i.e. pit.coop forward to BeyondThePit.Productions for the website, would that affect XMPP if members are Band@Pit.Coop?

hi

why don't I get scrollback on my mucs?

Ellenor Malik: which client?

Licaon_Kter: blabber (ex PAM) fresh install. Server side tho: this MUC has scrollback here from before I ever lived, so why not my server (a Prosody)'s MUCs? ✏

This sounds like a client issue though

Maybe no MUC MAM or only stored for a short period of time.

thndrbvr, don't trust iptables -nL. use iptables-save

also check nftables (nft list ruleset)

jonas’: thanks. Looks like a bunch of "accepts" there too. hmm.

nftables not even installed.

I saw something that suggested resetting ufw and re-adding all the allowed ports. Will try that in a few.

reset ufw, re-added allow rules, re-enabled. same issue. Immediately unable to connect with ufw enabled. can begin registering an account when disabled -.-

Potentially daft suggestion, but it's not IPv6-related, is it?

How so, jayteeuk?

Not sure exactly. ISTR having to set up IPv4 and IPv6 rules explicitly with ufw, but it's been a while, so I may well be wrong.

jayteeuk: I've been doing "ufw allow [port #]" and it adds it for ipv4, ipv6, tcp, and udp. Supposedly.

Anyone have experience using other firewalls? On what OS?

I suppose `ufw status verbose` is the key.

Iptables and ufw only for me, not combined
