1. Re: Closing Ports
jwkaltz Nov 12, 2001 1:01 PM (in response to tyrone)Sorry I don't mean to be rude, but if you don't want the public to access the Tomcat & JBoss ports than the obvious solution would be a firewall or ipchains or whatever. Why is this not a solution for you ?

2. Re: Closing Ports
tyrone Nov 13, 2001 8:22 PM (in response to tyrone)I should have given more detail. I don't have physical access to the server and I can't redesign the network it’s on to put it behind a firewall. I only want users to have access to the web layer thru Apache/port 80. I don't want the ports that Jboss & Tomcat uses to be accessible to the public.
I was wondering if there was a simple solution to restrict those ports to localhost (a configuration option?). So far, ipchains seems to be the only solution. Or maybe I'm worrying about nothing?

3. Re: Closing Ports
jburugupalli Apr 30, 2003 7:48 AM (in response to tyrone)HI,
I also have the same problem ...that i want to close all the ports which JBoss needs and open only port 80 throuhg which all the traffic will be allowed...and i want to access jboss with stanalone client..
is there a simple solution ...one solution which i know is using JProxy ...which inturn listens on a port 80 for example and redirects all the calls to their respective ports.
i want more options and simple solutions if possible
can any one help me out

jani
