You say "outside the router"... Is the router a linux box that you have in question? Or is the router something like a netgear/linksys etc. cable modem router? -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Michael Sullivan Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2004 9:57 AM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: redhat-list Digest, Vol 4, Issue 1 Ok I think I understand, but I don't know which IP address is which. Outside the router I have a static IP address set up with the ISP. It's inside the router that I have problems. Outside the router our address here is 68.15.193.18, but inside the address of the server PC that needs the static address is 192.168.1.4 I need to make sure that all mail and http requests are sent there. There wasn't a man file for ifcfg-eth0.
