To setup a reverse proxy
(or rather Destination NAT, DNAT)
for your chatmail relay,
put the following configuration in `/etc/nftables.conf`:
```
#!/usr/sbin/nft -f
flush ruleset
define wan = eth0
# Which ports to proxy.
#
# Note that SSH is not proxied
# so it is possible to log into the proxy server
# and not the original one.
define ports = { smtp, http, https, imap, imaps, submission, submissions }
# The host we want to proxy to.
define ipv4_address = AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD
define ipv6_address = [XXX::1]
table ip nat {
chain prerouting {
type nat hook prerouting priority dstnat; policy accept;
iif $wan tcp dport $ports dnat to $ipv4_address
}
chain postrouting {
type nat hook postrouting priority 0;
oifname $wan masquerade
}
}
table ip6 nat {
chain prerouting {
type nat hook prerouting priority dstnat; policy accept;
iif $wan tcp dport $ports dnat to $ipv6_address
}
chain postrouting {
type nat hook postrouting priority 0;
oifname $wan masquerade
}
}
table inet filter {
chain input {
type filter hook input priority filter; policy drop;
# Accept ICMP.
# It is especially important to accept ICMPv6 ND messages,
# otherwise IPv6 connectivity breaks.
icmp type { echo-request } accept
icmpv6 type { echo-request, nd-neighbor-solicit, nd-router-advert, nd-neighbor-advert } accept
# Allow incoming SSH connections.
tcp dport { ssh } accept
ct state established accept
}
chain forward {
type filter hook forward priority filter; policy drop;
ct state established accept
ip daddr $ipv4_address counter accept
ip6 daddr $ipv6_address counter accept
}
chain output {
type filter hook output priority filter;
}
}
```
Run `systemctl enable nftables.service`
to ensure configuration is reloaded when the proxy relay reboots.
Uncomment in `/etc/sysctl.conf` the following two lines:
for your chatmail relay, run:
```
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1
scripts/cmdeploy proxy <proxy_ip_address> --relay-ipv4 <relay_ipv4_address> --relay-ipv6 <relay_ipv6_address>
```
Then reboot the relay or do `sysctl -p` and `nft -f /etc/nftables.conf`.
Once proxy relay is set up,
you can add its IP address to the DNS.
you can add its IP address to the DNS,
or distribute it as you wish.
