This was manually solved, I didn’t check any other comment till the issue was fixed.

Take a look at my comment.

Thank you all for helping!

Hello.

I have wireguard set but the second it runs, services like ssh (22) and smb (455/445?) stop working.

nmap thinks my system is down.

Here is my config, I followed debian’s guide since my server is Deb12:

[Interface]
Address = 192.168.1.120/24
SaveConfig = true
PostUp = iptables -A FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wlp1s0 -j MASQUERADE
PostDown = iptables -D FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -o wlp1s0 -j MASQUERADE
ListenPort = 51820
PrivateKey = XXX

[Peer]
PublicKey = xxx
AllowedIPs = 192.168.1.230/32
Endpoint = 192.168.1.230:50104

No extra config was made.

    Could be your routing rules? Here’s what I use and it routes to anything inside my home network:

    PostUp = iptables -A FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -A FORWARD -o %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
PostDown = iptables -D FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -D FORWARD -o %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

    Just be sure to replace eth0 with the name of your adapter before you try it.

    Edit:

    Almost forgot, I’ve also enabled routing on my server as well; here are the steps I took to enable that:

    To configure forwarding, open the /etc/sysctl.conf file on your Wireguard Server using nano or your preferred editor: sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf

    If you are using IPv4 with WireGuard, add the following line at the bottom of the file: net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

    If you are using IPv6 with WireGuard, add this line at the bottom of the file: net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1

    If you are using both IPv4 and IPv6, ensure that you include both lines. Save and close the file when you are finished.

    To read the file and load the new values for your current terminal session, run: sudo sysctl -p

    Output: net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding = 1 net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

    Now your WireGuard Server will be able to forward incoming traffic from the virtual VPN ethernet device to others on the server and its LAN (if the LAN subnet is included in the AllowedIPs in the Wireguard config)

        are your services accessible through the wg interface on the server ? Try with nmap -Pn -A -T4 -p CHANGEME_TO_SSH_OR_SMB IPADDR_OF_WG_NIC
