MiniUPnP project. (c) 2006-2013 Thomas Bernard Homepage : http://miniupnp.free.fr/ Mirror: http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/ github: https://github.com/miniupnp/miniupnp miniupnpd is still under active developpement. This documentation is likely to be a little outdated when you read it. So please go on the web forum http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/ if you need more information. ================================ *BSD/pf ================================= To Build and Install : - use BSD make to compile. - you can first 'make config.h' then edit config.h to your preferences and finally 'make' Alternatively to editing config.h, options can be passed to genconfig.sh For more details : > ./genconfig.sh -h - add "rdr-anchor miniupnpd" and "anchor miniupnpd" lines to /etc/pf.conf - some FreeBSD users reported that it is also necessary for them to explicitly allow udp traffic on 239.0.0.0/8 by adding the two following lines to /etc/pf.conf : pass out on $int_if from any to 239.0.0.0/8 keep state pass in on $int_if from any to 239.0.0.0/8 keep state - dont forget to " pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf " - you can check your modifications are taken into accout with "pfctl -s nat" and "pfctl -s rule". Look for the "rdr-anchor miniupnpd" and "anchor miniupnpd" lines. - install as root using : # make install or # PREFIX=/usr/local make install - run as root : The daemon needs rights to modify pf rules. edit the /etc/miniupnpd.conf file to set options. Almost all options are also available through command line switches. To stop the daemon use : > kill `cat /var/run/miniupnpd.pid` =========================== *BSD,*Solaris/ipf ============================= genconfig.sh and the Makefile try to detect wether ipf or pf should be used. If it fails, edit config.h and Makefile by hand. In Makefile, the FWNAME variable value should be pf or ipf. Installation steps are allmost the same as with pf. *Solaris users would be interested in reading informations from : http://blogs.sun.com/avalon/category/IPFilter ============================= Mac OS X/ipfw =============================== - To enable non standard compilation options, > ./genconfig.sh -h Or edit config.h after it has been generated by genconfig.sh - use 'bsdmake' or 'make -f Makefile.macosx' to build ============================ Linux/netfilter ============================== To Build and install : - make sure you have libiptc available on your system : if you are using debian, "apt-get install iptables-dev" Some versions of the iptables-dev package don't include the necessary files : read "how to get libiptc with its headers on debian" below. In anycase, libiptc is available in iptables sources packages from http://netfilter.org - edit and run netfilter/iptables_init.sh shell script. This script must allways be run before the daemon to set up intial rules and chains. - Build and edit the config.h file > make -f Makefile.linux config.h > vi config.h - Build the daemon > make -f Makefile.linux If not using iptables from your system, > IPTABLESPATH=/path/to/iptables-1.4.1 make -f Makefile.linux - install as root using : > make -f Makefile.linux install - A miniupnpd script should be installed to /etc/init.d and the configuration files to /etc/miniupnpd - anytime, you can use the netfilter/iptables_flush.sh script to flush all rules added by the daemon. - after killing the daemon, you can get back to iptables initial state by runing the netfilter/iptables_removeall.sh script. Don't forget to edit the script to your convinience. NOTE: a /etc/init.d/miniupnpd script will be installed. If it suits you, you can use is with start, stop or restart argument. # /etc/init.d/miniupnpd restart How to get libiptc with its headers on debian : (Note: that should be useless now that netfilter/tiny_nf_nat.h is included) - Use apt-get to get sources : > apt-get source iptables you should then have an iptables-x.x.x/ directory. - configure and compile : > cd iptables-x.x.x/ > ./configure --enable-static > make - it is now possible to compile miniupnpd using the following command : > IPTABLESPATH=/path/to/iptables-x.x.x make -f Makefile.linux =========================== Configuration ============================= Edit the /etc/miniupnpd.conf file to set options. Almost all options are also available through command line switches. Miniupnpd supports some kind of security check for allowing or disallowing redirection to be made. The UPnP permission rules are read from the miniupnpd.conf configuration file. When a new redirection is asked, permission rules are evaluated in top-down order and the first permission rule matched gives the answer : redirection allowed or denied. If no rule is matching, the redirection is allowed, so it is a good practice to have a "catch all" deny permission rule at the end of your mermission ruleset. Sample permission ruleset : allow 4662-4672 192.168.1.34/32 4662-4672 deny 0-65535 192.168.1.34/32 0-65535 allow 1024-65535 192.168.1.0/24 1024-65535 deny 0-65535 0.0.0.0/0 0-65535 With this ruleset, redirections are allowed only for host on the subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 for the ports 1024 or above. There is an exception for the host 192.168.1.34 for which only redirections from/to port 4662 to 4672 are allowed. You can generate the uuid for your UPnP device with the uuidgen available under linux. The following following OpenBSD package is also providing a "uuid" tool : http://www.openbsd.org/4.0_packages/i386/uuid-1.5.0.tgz-long.html An web based uuid generator is also available : http://kruithof.xs4all.nl/uuid/uuidgen On linux systems, one could also use the command 'cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid' to generate an uuid. More simple, use the genuuid makefile target : > make genuuid or > make -f Makefile.linux genuuid This target is needed by the "install" target, so it should be done automatically. To stop the daemon use : # kill `cat /var/run/miniupnpd.pid` or if your linux system use /etc/init.d/ # /etc/init.d/miniupnpd stop
