I got my Linux box running with Cox. I = could not get the DHCP so for now I have static IPs. I hope nothing = changes until I get the DHCP actually working. But hey I have a net work = at home. It also has the firewall basically running as well. I have a = couple of small problems. I can not get e-mail from the PCs and the lap = top can not download a Windblose update it fails. The download has not = been tried on any other PC yet. I think that both problems are because I = have not got the IPchains right, or there are a couple of ports I am not = allowing to come through the firewall. Any ideas on where to look?
