Something is blocking my home linux box from accessing the work web and email server. I was trying to test last night whether I had the smtp sending of mail working from another ISP and could not get the website or email.
I have a router at home on DHCP connected to the local cable co. Our work internet is provided by different provider. If I choose to set up a static IP on the home router with a slightly different IP address (I pinged for a close number to make sure it wasn't currently used) then I could connect to our work web/email. I do have deny.hosts installed but nothing in the log file about it. If I cat messages or dmesg I see these kind of errors, even though my home computer is on "sleep" and my attempts were last night (I've munged the IP address): messages > Jan 13 11:30:03 svr2 cced(smd)[3057]: client 0:[0:3041]: SET 124 > timestamp = 1294950602 blocking = 0 failcnt = 8 host_ip = > "66.58.xxx.xxx" host_fqdn = "xxx-xxx-58-66.gci.net" dmesg: > Jan 13 04:41:35 svr2 kernel: IN=eth0 OUT= > MAC=00:24:e8:7a:be:f6:00:16:c7:9f:78:98:08:00 SRC=66.58.xxx.xxx > DST=10.199.2.21 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=42 ID=40022 DF PROTO=TCP > SPT=58388 DPT=110 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Where do I look? thanks, Jim -- Jim Dory Engineering City of Nome PO Box 281 102 Division St. Nome, AK 99762 907.443.6604 http://www.nomealaska.org _______________________________________________ Blueonyx mailing list [email protected] http://www.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
