Hi Nicolas,
Thanks, this makes a lot of sense. Have you the same problem by receiving mail
from an ISP? Do you know how to set up the mail part of ebox so that it can
actually receive mail from the outside world or do you think I will have to
register with DynDNS or something.

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
