Have a SCO Unix machine parked behind a Linux firewall running ipchains and using masquerading. I need this machine to transfer a file via rsh/rcp to another SCO Unix machine behind a firewall on another network. The problem is that the Linux firewall isn't sending the original rsh request from a priviledged port (<1024) and the rsh server on the other side is rejecting it. From what I've seen ipmasq in Linux (using ipchains with -j MASQ) doen't let you use priviledged ports, but I couldn't find any current info on this...
If I cannot use ipchains with MASQ, what are my options? I know about the security issues with rcp, but it's something I need to use due to the lack of freely available software for SCO Unix and lack of administrative control on the second machine...
Can I perhaps keep everyone on MASQ and have the SCO machine only use NAT? Would that fix my problem?
If you guys need more details, please let me know...
