3. Setting up the Gateway Services

This section describes how to setup each piece of the authentication gateway. The examples used are for a public network in the 10.0.1.0 subnet. eth0 is the interface on the box that is connected to the internal network. eth1 is the interface connected to the public network. The IP address used for this interface is 10.0.1.1. These settings can be changed to fit the network you are using. Red Hat 7.1 was used for the gateway box, so a lot of the examples are specific to Red Hat.

3.1. Netfilter Setup

To setup netfilter the kernel must be recompiled to include netfilter support. Please see the Kernel-HOWTO for more information on configuring and compiling your kernel.

This is what my kernel configuration looked like.
   #
   # Networking options
   #
   CONFIG_PACKET=y
   # CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP is not set
   # CONFIG_NETLINK is not set
   CONFIG_NETFILTER=y
   CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG=y
   CONFIG_FILTER=y
   CONFIG_UNIX=y
   CONFIG_INET=y
   CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST=y
   # CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER is not set
   # CONFIG_IP_PNP is not set
   # CONFIG_NET_IPIP is not set
   # CONFIG_NET_IPGRE is not set
   # CONFIG_IP_MROUTE is not set
   # CONFIG_INET_ECN is not set
   # CONFIG_SYN_COOKIES is not set


   #   IP: Netfilter Configuration
   #   
   CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_FTP=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_LIMIT=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_MAC=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_MARK=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_MULTIPORT=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_TOS=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_TCPMSS=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_STATE=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_UNCLEAN=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_OWNER=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_FILTER=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_REJECT=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MIRROR=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_NEEDED=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_REDIRECT=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_FTP=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_MANGLE=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_TOS=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MARK=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_LOG=y
   CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_TCPMSS=y
   

Once netfilter has been configured, turn on IP forwarding by executing this command.

   echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
   

To make sure ip forwarding is enabled when the machine restarts add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf.

   net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
   

If NocatAuth is being used, you can skip to the NoCatAuth gateway setup section.

iptables needs to be installed. To install iptables either use a package from your distribution or install from source. Once the above options were compiled in the new kernel and iptables was installed, I set the following default firewall rules.

   iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
   iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW, INVALID -j DROP
   iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -m state --state NEW, INVALID -j DROP
   iptables -I FORWARD -o eth0 -j DROP
   iptables -I FORWARD -s 10.0.1.0/24 -d 10.0.1.1 -j ACCEPT
   

The above commands can also be put in an initscript to start up when the server restarts. To make sure the rules have been added issue the following commands:

   iptables -v -t nat -L
   iptables -v -t filter -L
   

To save these rules I used Red Hat's init scripts.

   /etc/init.d/iptables save
   /etc/init.d/iptables restart
   

Now the gateway box will be able to do network address translation (NAT), but it will drop all forwarding packets except those coming from within the public network and bound for the gateway.

3.2. Dynamic Netfilter rules.

This section describes how to setup the software needed to dynamically insert and remove Netfilter rules on the gateway.

3.2.1. PAM iptables Module

The PAM session module that inserts the firewall rules is needed to allow forwarding for the authenticated client. To set it up simply get the source and compile it by running the following commands.

     gcc -fPIC -c pam_iptables.c
     ld -x --shared -o pam_iptables.so pam_iptables.o
     

You should now have two binaries called pam_iptables.so and pam_iptables.o. Copy pam_iptables.so to /lib/security/pam_iptables.so.

     cp pam_iptables.so /lib/security/pam_iptables.so
     

Now install the firewall script to /usr/local/auth-gw.

     mkdir /usr/local/auth-gw
     cp insFwall /usr/local/auth-gw
     

The chosen authentication client for the gateway was ssh so we added the following line to /etc/pam.d/sshd.

     session    required     /lib/security/pam_iptables.so 
     

Now, when a user logs in with ssh, the firewall rule will be added.

To test if the pam_iptables module is working perform the following steps:

  1. Log into the box with ssh.

  2. Check to see if the rule was added with the command iptables -L -v.

  3. Log out of the box to make sure the rule is removed.

3.2.2. NoCatAuth gateway

This section describes the process of setting up the NocatAuth gateway. To setup NocatAuth get the source and install with the following steps.

Make sure gpgv is installed. gpgv is a PGP signature verifier. It is part of gnupg and can be found at http://www.gnupg.org/download.html.

Unpack the NocatAuth tar file.
     tar xvzf NocatAuth-x.xx.tar.gz
     

If you do not want NoCatAuth to be in the directory /usr/local/nocat, edit the Makefile and change INST_PATH to the directory you would like NoCatAuth to reside.

Next build the gateway.
     cd NoCatAuth-x.xx
     make gateway
     

Edit the /usr/local/nocat.conf file. Please see the INSTALL documentation for details on what is required in the conf file. An example conf file looks like the following:

 
     ###### gateway.conf -- NoCatAuth Gateway Configuration.
     # 
     # Format of this file is: Directive Value, one per 
     # line. Trailing and leading whitespace is ignored. Any 
     # line beginning with a punctuation character is assumed to 
     # be a comment.
     
     Verbosity       10
     #we are behind a NAT so put the gateway in passive mode
     GatewayMode     Passive
     GatewayLog      /usr/local/nocat/nocat.log
     LoginTimeout    300
     
     ######Open Portal settings.
     HomePage        http://www.itlab.musc.edu/
     DocumentRoot    /usr/local/nocat/htdocs
     SplashForm      splash.html
     ###### Active/Passive Portal settings.
     TrustedGroups Any
     AuthServiceAddr egon.itlab.musc.edu
     AuthServiceURL  https://$AuthServiceAddr/cgi-bin/login
     LogoutURL       https://$AuthServiceAddr/forms/logout.html
     ###### Other Common Gateway Options.
     AllowedWebHosts egon.itlab.musc.edu
     ResetCmd        initialize.fw
     PermitCmd       access.fw permit $MAC $IP $Class 
     DenyCmd         access.fw deny $MAC $IP $Class 
     

Now you should be able to start the gateway. If any problems occur, please see the INSTALL documentation in the unpacked NoCatAuth directory. The following command will start the gateway:
     /usr/local/nocat/bin/gateway
     

3.3. DHCP Server Setup

I installed DHCP using the following dhcpd.conf file.

   subnet 10.0.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
   # --- default gateway
        option routers                  10.0.1.1;
        option subnet-mask              255.255.255.0;
        option broadcast-address        10.0.1.255;

        option domain-name-servers       10.0.1.1;      
        range   10.0.1.3 10.0.1.254;
        option time-offset              -5;     # Eastern Standard Time

        default-lease-time 21600;
        max-lease-time 43200;

    } 
    

The server was then run using eth1 , the interface to the public net.

    /usr/sbin/dhcpd eth1
    

3.4. Authentication Method Setup

Authentication with PAM and a NoCatAuth authentication service is described. Both examples are done with LDAP. Other means of authentication besides LDAP can be used. Please read the documentation for PAM and NoCatAuth to find the steps to use another authentication source.

3.4.1. PAM LDAP

As indicated in previous sections, I've set this gateway up to use LDAP for authenticating. However, you can use any means that PAM allows for authentication. See Section 2.4 for more information.

In order to get PAM LDAP to authenticate, I installed OpenLDAP and configured it with the following in /etc/ldap.conf.

     # Your LDAP server. Must be resolvable without using LDAP.
     host itc.musc.edu

     # The distinguished name of the search base.
     base dc=musc,dc=edu
     ssl no
     

The following files were used to configure PAM to do the LDAP authentication. These files were generated by Red Hat's configuration utility.

/etc/pam.d/system-auth was created and looked like this.

      #%PAM-1.0
      # This file is auto-generated.
      # User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.
      auth        required      /lib/security/pam_env.so
      auth        sufficient    /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok
      auth        sufficient    /lib/security/pam_ldap.so use_first_pass
      auth        required      /lib/security/pam_deny.so

      account     required      /lib/security/pam_unix.so
      account     [default=ok user_unknown=ignore service_err=ignore system_err=ignore] /lib/security/pam_ldap.so

      password    required      /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so retry=3
      password    sufficient    /lib/security/pam_unix.so nullok use_authtok
      password    sufficient    /lib/security/pam_ldap.so use_authtok
      password    required      /lib/security/pam_deny.so

      session     required      /lib/security/pam_limits.so
      session     required      /lib/security/pam_unix.so
      session     optional      /lib/security/pam_ldap.so
      

Then the following /etc/pam.d/sshd file was created.

       #%PAM-1.0
       auth       required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
       auth       required     /lib/security/pam_nologin.so
       account    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
       password   required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
       session    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
       #this line is added for firewall rule insertion upon login
       session    required     /lib/security/pam_iptables.so debug
       session    optional     /lib/security/pam_console.so
      

3.4.2. NoCatAuth Service

It is recommended to install the NoCatAuth Service on another server besides the gateway. A seperate server was used in my examples. In order to setup a NoCatAuth Service, you will need the following software:

  1. An SSL enabled webserver, preferably with a registered SSL cert. I used Apache + mod_ssl.

  2. Perl 5 (5.6 or better recommended)

  3. Net::LDAP, Digest::MD5, DBI, and DBD::MySQL perl modules (get them from CPAN) The module you need depends on what authentication source you are going to use. In my example Net::LDAP is used as the authentication means.

  4. Gnu Privacy Guard (gnupg 1.0.6 or better), available at http://www.gnupg.org/download.html

To install unpack the tar file.
    $ tar zvxf NoCatAuth-x.xx.tar.gz
    

If you would like to change the path that NoCatAuth resides , edit the Makefile and change INST_PATH to the desired directory.

Next run the command: make authserv This installs everything in /usr/local/nocat or what you changed INST_PATH to.

Then run make pgpkey The defaults should be fine for most purposes. IMPORTANT: do NOT enter a passphrase! Otherwise, you will get strange messages when the auth service attempts to encrypt messages, and tries to read your passphrase from a non-existent tty

Edit /usr/local/nocat/nocat.conf to fit your situation. Here is an example:
    ###### authserv.conf -- NoCatAuth Authentication Service Configuration.
    #
    # Format of this file is: Directive Value, one per
    #   line. Trailing and leading whitespace is ignored. Any
    #   line beginning with a punctuation character is assumed to
    #   be a comment.

Make sure /usr/local/nocat/pgp is owned by the web server user. (ie..nobody or www-data)

Add etc/authserv.conf to your apache httpd.conf file.
 Include /usr/local/nocat/etc/authserv.conf 

Copy your /usr/local/nocat/trustedkeys.pgp to the gateway. Restart apache and try it out. Please see the NoCatAuth documentation for more information. It can be found in docs/ in the unpacked NoCatAuth directory.

3.5. DNS Setup

I installed the default version of Bind that comes with Red Hat 7.1, and the caching-nameserver RPM. The DHCP server tells the machines on the public net to use the gateway box as their nameserver.
