I’m on at least 2 blocklists at this point for the crime of not having reverse DNS set up. I don’t know how rDNS works. No amount of reading Wikipedia is helping me understand what I have to do.

  • I have a domain at a registrar which gives me bog standard DNS.
  • I have Apache running on my network.
  • I have PiHole running on my network.

My understanding is that rDNS is not set up at my registrar, but somewhere in my network. What do I do?

Thank you for your time.

    From my side, I now see 3 ???s between the CPE and your IP address, which is also responding, so that’s great.

    Can your friend do something like curl -vvv https://drkt.eu or whatever to see if the time out happens before/after SSL handshake etc.? Also, do they have any firewalls / security appliances configured to filter content? I’d be curious to see dig or nslookup result, ping or traceroute result, and curl -vvv result, just to understand where it is breaking down.

    Also, do you have a login to your ISP’s equipment? Are you able to set it to bridge mode to bypass it altogether? Just throwing ideas out there, to see if there is anything else on the go. That cpe device is also pretty curious for sure.

    Edit: Also, if they can get a response from ping, then it is probably not routing, but something else on the connection to the service / port itself. That’s what I’m hoping we can figure out from the various outputs.

      Office friend still can’t ping me. The campus friend can ping me but can’t reach my website. I never trusted campus friend to be on a clean network so it’s a bit fruitless to test his connection.

      My ISP’s equipment is entirely a modem right now, bridging straight to my pfsense router. It’s not doing any weird filtering.

      Here are the results of those from office friend

      — UPDATE

      Office friends pinged me 4 times, all timed out on his end. His IP showed up in my state table and I captured these 2 packets

      State table:

      Interface Protocol  Source -> Destination            State  Packets 	Bytes 	
      WAN 	icmp 	5.186.33.87:1 -> 89.150.135.135:1 	0:0 	4 / 4 	240 B / 240 B 	
      

      Packet capture: (the only 2, despite the 4 pings, and they have bad checksums?) All 8 expected packets show up but all do have bad checksums. I’m seeing a LOT of bad checksums. A known working connection from fourth friend did not show bad checksums in this same test.

          5.186.33.87 > 89.150.135.135: ICMP echo request, id 1, seq 43476, length 40
      12:38:19.843890 d0:50:99:81:48:17 > 4c:6d:58:4a:97:d4, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 74: (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 21715, offset 0, flags [none], proto ICMP (1), length 60, bad cksum 0 (->1dc0)!)
          89.150.135.135 > 5.186.33.87: ICMP echo reply, id 1, seq 43476, length 40
      12:38:20.219177 d0:50:99:81:48:17 > 4c:6d:58:4a:97:d4, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 43: (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 32958, offset 0, flags [none], proto ICMP (1), length 29, bad cksum 0 (->3f6d)!)
      

      He went to my domain while I was collecting packets from ANY protocol filtering his IP It’s a bit long, so here’s the cap file https://u.drkt.eu/iiUsH7.cap

        I’ve learned that the bad checksums are to to be ignored because it’s the NIC that’s responsible for it, so tcpdump sees the wrong checksums and it doesn’t matter. I have also learned that the Apache container actually does see the incoming connections. Here’s an example of my working connection and his connection.

        root ~ -> tcpdump -n port 443

          We’re making progress!

          Looks like connection are being made, so it isn’t routing after all!

          Looking at the first recording, based on the different packet length, I’d guess it is doing SSL handshake properly; whereas the second one seems to be all 0 length and so something is not working out. At least on a cursory glance, your settings seems to be pretty permissive, so unless your friend’s using a super old system, it shouldn’t be an issue. Do you know what OS your friend is using, and if it has up-to-date root certificates? Are they on a system with openssl cli available? Judging by the unifi network, probably? Try openssl s_client -connect drkt.eu:443 -prexit (and ctrl + c to quit after it stops) and see if you can see any oddities with the SSL handshake process.

            He’s running Windows 10, unfortunately- but wouldn’t SSL errors show up in Apache logs? His IP appears 0 times in all apache error and access logs dating back 8 months (the beginning of recorded logs).

            Here’s another example of a working request to https://drkt.eu, and his non-working request respectively.

              See this page here that explains the Flags: https://opensource.com/article/18/10/introduction-tcpdump

              Typically, in a TCP connection, you’d SYN, SYN+ACK, ACK, then transfer actual data over. In the successful sequence, you see this happening as expected.

              In the unsuccessful sequence, it seems to be stuck in SYN, SYN+ACK, but there is no ACK that follows (Flags [.]).

              Where is the second one captured? On the user’s system, or on your system? Something in between is determining the packet isn’t intended for the destination and dropping it. It may be a firewall, it may be something else.

                Replying to both of your comments:

                These are captured on both my gateway and the Apache LXC container. The captured packets are identical as far as tcpdump is aware on both of these systems. As far as I can tell, unless there are shenanigans at the firewall WAN NIC, this is how the packets arrive to my firewall.

                And I don’t think this is asymmetrical routing if I understand it correctly, as I only have one firewall. My interfaces are configured correctly according to that netgate article.
