PeterJames Posted August 30, 2015 Author Posted August 30, 2015 Pete I can get sme to spoof a mac address via a script. Id rather not make it permanent and have a migrated way to restore after failure, ie not using the mac address. But i can get you going monday but it will only work till rebooted. If we can do that Tuesday that would be great I need to order a replacement server to so need a spec really Quote
james.wilson Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Ill get you a spec. re mac I'll assume it's eth1...then substitute the x's for whatever you want:ifconfig eth1 down hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xxifconfig eth1 up Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
sixwheeledbeast Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 I have used macchanger before now. This is a CLI utility which you can add the flag --mac= followed by device eth0 As James says this kind of thing will only work until a reboot. You will need to add a script or change the configuration to keep it. Not well up on CentOS but Debian would be in /etc/network For issues like this, would it not be best to have the modem going via a router then to your server. Or do you have a reason for it being setup in this way? Quote

Or do you have a reason for it being setup in this way? Well I could have set up several ip's via a router but I never got round to it. I wanted the server to be the Firewall, not that it has prevented **** getting onto the engineers PC in the rest area. Quote

Id need to setup danguardian for that which is what i use at work. But can block some usefull stuff too. I use whitelists for websites to allow downloads etc Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

james.wilson Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Ish, I'd prefer something other than clam for the Av side. It's ok but needs a lot of tweaking. But as its free I can't moan. I find the unofficial clam lists more use to be honest Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Yes you won't stop stuff like that with just a firewall. I have always been happy with letting the router do all the firewall/management related tasks mentioned, I just keep it's FW upto date. Allso use ufw on each machine too. I have always found Clam a PITA, the last time I used it I remember it being very heavy on resources. Quote
