Firewall Basics 1.3 challenge exercise

After i execute ./.challenge.sh to run the shell script that will open two new ports on 10.10.10.10. i get the error message that all 1000 ports are filtered, ik that means a firewall is blocking me but when i check using sudo iptables -L i see none i’m just so lost because i know it has to be something simple i’m not doing right somebody plz help!!!

I think the 10.10.10.10 ip address is not getting bound to the local ethernet card. Thank you for reporting this issue.

I will let you know when this has been fixed.

LOL… we both missed a step…

Good morning, i tried steps 9-16 before i made this post and the reason i did that is because after i finished the guided exercise i took a day or so off and when i started the challenge exercise it was saying " 1. Leave the x-terminal windows open, but close all terminal windows. If prompted to confirm closing a windows, do so. You can use the clear command to clean up the x-terminal windows." But i didn’t have any x-terminals or regular terminals open.

If you come back to do the challenge later you have to redo step 9 and the steps to start mininet.

Hey Joseph, i did that before i made this post and when i ran a nmap -sT before i executed ./.challenge.sh it read port 21, 22, 80 and 3389 was open but soon as i execute ./.challenge.sh thats when the problem started. But i will run it aging tomorrow because today is the sabbath.

Good morning, the lab is not working at all now!

Some labs were down this morning, please retry when convenient.
