hi,
i have similar setup to yours:
ADSL => EBOX PC => SWITCH (wireless router)
i assume your switch does not give ip address to your network, if it does you
can use ebox like this after you disable this facility.
the connection to the ADSL has to be set as external having dynamic ip (dhcp).
create another connection (eth1) and set as static ip, and choose
an ip adddress eg:192.168.1.1
a netmask eg: 255.255.255.0
then go into dhcp
choose the tab of eth1
and enter the necessary detials:
gateway: 192.168.1.1
search domain: 192.168.1.1
prim name server: 192.168.1.1
sec name server: <ip given from you ADSL name server>
apply changes
in rages:
give it a name: myHouse
from: 192.168.1.100
to: 192.168.1.150
this will give all number in between (51 ip addresses)
click on the +
and save changes
i am sure other will be able explain better
regards,

Hi all,
I am very new to Ebox and installed ebox and sarge
with the base cd one can download from the ebox website.
I have got everything up and running with only one
network card. I tried to use two network cards so that the one network
card acts as an external card (connected directly to the ADSL router) and the
other one internal (connected directly onto the network switch).
Could anyone please help me to configure these two
cards so that they can work together? I cannot seem to get it right.
The gateway for the external card is set to the adsl router's ip and the
internal card have a gateway of the external network card. Logically this
makes sense to me but it just does not seem to work and the network
clashes.
Then another thing. Like I said, I now only
have one network card (not marked as external) connected to the network
switch. The adsl router is also connected to the switch but the network
users get their settings via DHCP and everything is working fine. I am
trying to set up a mail account on outlook to collect mail from my ISP but I
cannot reach that ISP's server. I have tried various pop servers as well
as IMAP servers but the connection just times out.
I have opened ports 25, 110, 143, 993, etc hoping
that this will sort out the problem but it does not. Have any of you
experienced this problem before and is there a workaround?
When I set the ebox up as a mail server, i can get
mail from the ebox server's IP as incoming mail server. Can I set ebox up
to collect mail from the isp on all the users I add on it?
Please help!
Regards,
Johan
